This Time Lyrics

this time i need to know 
i really must be told 
if it's over 
it's up to you, you know 
the things you really want to hold 
are in pieces 

crashing down 
crashing down again 
crashing down 
crashing down my friends 

i've got to move it on 
i've got to sing my song 
while i still can 
dispatch the last alarms 
and of the last few shards 
they're still surprising 

only love 
only love can win 
crashing down 
crashing down again 

only love, yeah 
only love will win 
crashing down 
crashing down again 

this time i need to know 
i really must be told 
that it's over 
i've lived my life alone 
my every step fortold 
to never linger 
and yet it haunts me so 
what are we letting go 
the spell is broken 

crashing down 
crashing down my friend 
crashing down 
crashing down again 

only love, yeah 
only love will be enough, yeah 
only love will win 

for every chemical 
you trade a piece of your soul 
you know me time 
and who you think you know 
doesn't know you at all 
portrayed as needless 

someday we'll wave hello 
and wish we'd never waved goodbye 
to those brown eyes 
we'll drink up every line 
and shoot up everyone 
until it's no more 

crashing down 
crashing down my friends 
only love 
only love can win 

so cry these tears 
we'll cry is all 
we've held so long 
to fall apart 
as the curtain falls 
we bid you all goodnight
