Song Lyrics

Twenty years on a (?) beat
Stretching out and going far
I don't know if these hands will ever meet
Thing with love is that you can't start it

Even when I was dead inside
You saw something to remind you
Of the man I was trying to hide
The man who needed just to find you

[Chorus:]
I just want to go on with you
(?) and you do to
Something in your eyes so rare and true
I just want to go on with you, baby baby

That's when you knew I couldn't trust anyone
That's when you knew I couldn't trust myself
You said "what good is trust without a smoking gun"
"If we can't risk betrayal it just sits on a shelf"

That's when I knew I was in love with you
That's when the walls started comin' down
That's when I reached all the darkest blue

I just want to go on with you
I just want to go on with you
I just want to go
I just want to go
I just want to go
I just want to go
I just want to
I just want to
I just want to
I just want to go
I just want to go on with you
I just want to go on with you, baby

It's like living in a dream
Waking up in the middle of a scream
And realizing that you're not alone
Anyway the bogeyman went home

[Chorus:]

I just want to go on with you
I just want to go on with you
I just want to
I just want to
I just want to
I just want to
I just want to go on with you
