About the Artist
Lyrics
We may not get back what we had, what I threw away But you know I would do anything, anything you say Across a 1000 miles of broken glass on my hands and knees I would crawl if for a moment we could cease hostilities But it seemed like such a good idea at the time Such a very very good idea at the time I don't know where I am I don't know where I went wrong I don't know where to start again I don't know where I am I don't know where I went wrong I don't know where to start again Now the dream is over and lately I have found That you only seem to come alive when I am not around But it seemed like such a good idea at the time Such a very very good idea at the time I don't know where I am I don't know where I went wrong I don't know where to start again I don't know where I am I don't know where I went wrong I don't know where to start Well, it seemed like such a good idea at the time Such a very very good idea at the time I don't know where I am I don't know where I went wrong I don't know where to start again I don't know where I am I don't know where I went wrong I don't know where to start...
