lyrics

I can't stop this getting older
I can't halt the march of time
The fire's been growing colder
In this broken heart of mine
I think about her some days
I'm living in the past
I should be trying some way
To find new love at last

CHORUS
But there is something strong
That cannot be out-run
It's been with me for so long
Will not be overcome
It's something deep inside
That couldn't be denied
There's no holding back the tide
And heaven knows I've tried

The days are getting shorter
The night so quick to come
I'm sure that I just saw the
Last fall of a dying sun
I'll dream I wake tomorrow
With her lying next to me
But each new morning follows
Same way as it's always been

CHORUS
But there is something strong
That cannot be out-run
It's been with me for so long
Will not be overcome
It's something deep inside
That couldn't be denied
There's no holding back the tide
And heaven knows I've tried

BRIDGE
I stayed here and she moved on
She went right when I went wrong
She chose life and I chose none
Now I'm just sat here writing songs
Yeah, this is how it's meant to be
And I don't want your sympathy
Just take a moment, think of me
The footnote in your history

INSTRUMENTAL

CHORUS
But there is something strong
That cannot be out-run
It's been with me for so long
Will not be overcome
It's something deep inside
That couldn't be denied
There's no holding back the tide
And heaven knows I've tried
