Lyrics
How can I go on
And face the world without her
When she's the world to me
So cold and dark outside
Rain was crying from the sky
And echoes of her voice
Inside my mind
They spoke of yesterday
And all we had before the pain
I close my eyes in shame
Knowing I'm to blame
For lonely days
And endless nights
Since she's run away
And here I am holding on
I'm holding onto memories
Of all our hopes and dreams
Oh how can I go on
and face the world without her
When she's the world to me
Her words went in my ears
I cried a thouSAnd tears
I'm locked inside myself
Chained with fear
A fear of loneliness
Like I've never felt before
And emptiness
When she closed the door
Leaving me here
On my knees
Drowning in these tears
[chorus]
I acted just like a fool
Too blind to see
That I'd been so cruel
I pray that time will heal these wounds
But time can't heal
My shattered heart
As long as we're apart
[solo]
[chorus]
Baby I'm holding on
I'mholding on to memories
Of all our hopes and dreams
And how can I go on
And face the world without you
When you're the world to me
