How long can we play these games
Where outcome is always the same
When it's you and I the stakes are so high
And it's just so hard to win
We've got so much time invested
Were tried and true, torn and tested
After so many years and so many tears
How did we get back here again?
It's too late to turn back now
Without giving in somehow
I thought that love was there for the taking
But our whole world seems to be breaking
And there's nothing we can do
So I'll try to hold on till tomorrow
For one more day without sorrow
But the night slips away too soon
In the fading light of a restless moon
Same old scenes play over and over
And between the lines we just might discover
The naked truth that it's just no use
To try to fight it any longer
But I don't want to let go now
When I might lose it all somehow
I thought that love was there for the taking
But our whole world seems to be breaking
And there's nothing we can do
So I'll try to hold on till tomorrow
For one more day without sorrow
But the night slips away too soon
In the fading light of a restless moon
How many times can we give it one more try
If we take our chances and we let the sparks fly
There's a candle lit at both ends and it's burning up the night
So let's let love light up the sky
I thought that love was there for the taking
But our whole world seems to be breaking
And there's nothing we can do
So I'll try to hold on till tomorrow
For one more day without sorrow
But the night slips away too soon
In the fading light of a restless moon... of a restless moon
I'll try to hold on
