I'm older now.
But I don't feel much smarter than
5 years ago.
I should know.
All that I've learned
Still I fear I'll make the same
mistakes again.
It never ends.
Now I just go on
as if nothing is wrong.
A lie I tell myself.
The pain and regrets
They won't let me be.
When I think of you,
I'm right back at the very start
when we were young
and just begun.
Though time has gone by
But it doesn't change a thing.
We tried our best.
We had our chance.
Now I just go on
as if nothing is wrong.
A lie I tell myself.
The pain and regrets
They won't let me be.
Tell me...
It's over now... oh...
It's over now...
I'm older now.
But I don't feel much smarter than
5 years ago.
But I should know.
Now I just go on
as if nothing is wrong.
A lie I tell myself.
The pain and regrets
They won't let me be.
Let me be...
But only time will tell
When the pain and regrets
will ever let me be.
