there's an angel in chelsea she lives right above me you hardly ever hear her, except when it is snowing she keeps the windows wide open she likes the sounds out on the street as the cars go rushing by, the night turns into day she climbs into bed and i hear somebody say..."go on and.....cry, there's a battle ahead but without the darkness, you could not see the light... go on and cry, cause as bad as it gets, you haven't lost me yet, you couldn't if you tried" there's an angel in chelsea she lives right above me you hardly ever hear her, except when it is snowing... she keeps the windows wide open, she likes the snow to fall right in. it falls on to her feet, she sees it melt away, she climbs under the sheets and i hear the same voice say "go on and... cry, there's a battle ahead but without the darkness, you could not see the light... go on and cry, cause as bad as it gets, you haven't lost me yet, you couldn't if you tried"... first you live then you fight then you give in... so you can rise. when you come out, on the other side, you will never see life with the same two eyes... go on and... cry...

in my head i can just pretend that we're over, but nothing is harder, than goodbye from your mouth, all those words, from your lips all the promises. the sweetest sounds i ever heard tell me this, was it anything but your lies, (that's the trouble with..) i never. when you called her name did you break just a little, when you had to say it to my face, did you die just a little did you ever stop, did you ever stop to think of anyone but you and all the mess that you had made and all the time that you had wasted all the times you could have tried, you could have tried to save us from your mouth, all those words from your lips all the promises the sweetest sounds i ever heard tell me this, was it anything but your lies, (that's the trouble with..) i never. i'll never trust in anyone again. i'll never give my heart to anyone again. did you get what you wanted was it worth the sacrifice? in the end when your cards were counted, did you play me right?

now that i'm finally settled in the walls are high but the air is thin and i can be who i was again the ink is dry on the plan we laid the curtain drawn on the life we made and I can breathe on my own again i was bound to be the one to break you were bound to be the one to stay never fade now the only thing missing the only thing missing the only thing missing is you. silence now no matter what the cost no looking back at the things we lost this is best for you and me no regrets and no looking back it's just the way the cards were stacked and this is how it was meant to be but it was bound to be an uphill climb i was bound to reach the other side in time now the only thing missing...is you. i wake up from restless sleep to find that this is not a dream i keep. now that i've cleared up all of this my wounded heart's gotten over it my arms are open wide. it was bound to come a little late you were bound to be my greatest mistake..now the only thing missing is you

it came so easily but it wasn't meant to be and for all my wanting all i'd want was you. you were a pretty mess complicated and i guess you told the lie so many times you thought it was the truth but if you look at me and you don't remember all of those days and nights back in november you can pretend that i loved you never but don't forget i will remember you were content to be frustrated patiently but for all your thinking all you thought was me i was your sacrifice so you could lead a simple life but you told the lie so many times they bought it for the truth and if you look at me and you don't remember all of those days and nights back in november you can pretend that i loved you never but don't forget cause i will remember you and your eyes of blue and your long blonde hair and your cruel cruel stare how you looked right through me like you hardly knew me at all it came easily but it wasn't meant to be and for all my wanting all my wanting...

careful dear here comes the pouring rain, and you'll drown in the flood of his love again what you thought you would recognize you don't see what you thought you could do without, you need what you thought would make you stronger made you weak, and you're in trouble, you're in trouble so deep and i say, here comes the flood again, here comes the storm i'm so afraid but your love keeps me warm. careful dear this river runs it's course, and the mess you made will only get worse what you thought you would recognize you don't see what you thought you could do without, you need what you thought would make you stronger made you weak, and you're in trouble, you're in trouble so deep here comes the flood again, here comes the storm i'm so afraid but your love keeps me warm careful dear you think you know him well, but time will only tell here comes the flood...

they said i'd heal quick they said i'd be fine they said all it'd take is just a clean slate and a good deal of time, so i held my breath as i stepped on the train i opened my eyes and i shut my mouth i cleared my head and i looked around and i thought this is what you've been missing while you've been wasting time on your tears look at all you've been given how could you give up all these years, starting today i can see all this get outta my way i don't want to miss a thing they said i'd heal quick much deeper and wise they said all it'd take was just a clean slate and a good deal of wine, so i held my breath as i stepped off the train i opened my eyes and i shut my mouth i cleared my head and i looked around and i thought this is what you've been missing while you've been wasting time on your tears look at all you've been given how could you give up all those years, starting today i can see all this outta my way i don't want to miss a thing and i finally understand it what all the signs were for i could see a happy ending i could not see before what a pretty fine...mess we were

i grew tired of you, then you grew tired of me too so we both tried something new til we grew tired of that too if love is a game i think i failed it if love is a game i just can't play cause all of the rules confuse me win or lose see i come home to you i grew tired of fighting and you grew tired of me breaking everything so we both tried to be quite but in all that quite we couldn't hear a thing if love is a game i think i failed it if love is a game i just can't play cause all of the rules confuse me win or lose see you come home to me oh this life is love and how you hold on to it you grew tired last night so i lay you down and before i shut off the light i looked at you and thought what a sweet sweet life you're the only thing i got right if love is a test i think i nailed it if love is a game i think i'll play cause all of the rules confuse me win or lose see i've come home to stay home to stay

somewhere down on seventh avenue before the storm the sky has got an orange glow and the wind blows warm, i have never felt so clean let it wash over me did you leave me here and tell me you'd come and tell me you'd beat the rain, well i've been a fool if ever there was one somewhere down on seventh ave before the storm the sky has got an orange glow and the wind blows warm, run into the open arms of the one who never did you any harm did you leave me here and tell me you'd come and tell me you'd beat the rain, i've been a fool if ever there was one... its been so long, you've been gone, so long somewhere down on seventh avenue before the storm the sky has got an orange glow and the wind blows warm i've been waiting patiently has my love abandoned me. did you leave me here and tell me you'd come and tell me you'd beat the rain, we'll i've been a fool if ever there was one, cause i see a cloud up ahead, i see a cloud in the sky she said, i see a storm cloud loom but i don't see you, wait maybe i do, it looks like you beat the rain
