Song Lyrics

[Chorus:]
I'm not one for love songs
The way I'm livin', makes you feel like giving up but you don't
And I want everything for you
The disappointed because you've been left behind and the word hasn't shine
I would drop it on a dime for you

Hey, ho
And whatever it takes
Hey, ho
I'm going to make my way home
Hey, ho
We can turn our backs on the pasts and start over

[Chorus]

And not long ago
I gave up hope, but you came along
You gave me something I could hold onto
Oh, whoa
And I want you
Oh, whoa
More than you can ever know

Before I met you I use to dream you up and make you up in my mind
Oh, whoa
All I ever wanted was to be understood
You've been the only one who could
I could never turn my back on you

[Chorus]

Hey, ho
And whatever it takes
Hey, ho
I'm going to make my way home
Hey, ho
We can turn our backs on the pasts and start over

And not long ago
I gave up hope, but you came along and gave me something I could hold onto
Oh, whoa
And I want you
Oh, whoa
More than you can ever know (more than you could ever know)
More than you could ever know,
It's true.

[Repeat: x2]
And not long ago
I gave up hope, but you came along and gave me something I could hold onto
Oh, whoa

And want you
Oh, whoa
More than you can ever know
