lyrics

Here I go again
How many times till I learn my lesson
I walked willingly into your labyrinth
There's no easy way
Even when there is
No decision isn't always the easy decision


I will never try to pursue you
I will never change my life for you
I will never self-destruct for you
I will never have my chance with you

Dreaming my reluctant dreams of you
I will always shy away from you
I will always hide my thoughts of you
I will always wonder about you


The moon is rising fast
Reaching up from the horizon
She stayed late in bed
Clinging to thoughts of you as I did
Before I woke,
I brushed your cheek and lost my mind
You have no idea about my dreams,
That's the only thing I've done right

I will never try to pursue you
I will never change my life for you
I will never self-destruct for you
I will never have my chance with you

Dreaming my reluctant dreams of you
I will always shy away from you
I will always hide my thoughts of you
I will always wonder about you

Here I go again
Following the same old trend
I'm ashamed to admit
That I've learned nothing in all of this

This is not the way it was supposed to be
I promised that the last time would be the last time
But it's the same old me
I should have listened well when the wise man said
"Do not mistake temptation for opportunity"

I will never try to pursue you
I will never change my life for you
I will never self-destruct for you
I will never have my chance with you

Dreaming my reluctant dreams of you
I will always shy away from you
I will always hide my thoughts of you
I will always wonder about you
