Leave me to my delusion
Tell me what to say when the day is stealing
Every illusion
I'm hoping, praying in vain that you'll say
That we'll start again

I can't outrun the days gone by
You still got a hold on my heart
But you're worth every tear I cry
You still got a hold and there's no letting go

Sometimes when I'm still dreaming
I listen and I could swear that I hear you singing
Off in the distance
You're waiting for me to join the next line
But I pantomime

And I can't outrun the days gone by
You still got a hold on my heart
But you're worth every tear I cry
You still got a hold and there's no letting go

Just like the sky surrenders the rain falling down
I keep on flying and crashing that plane into your killing ground
Every explosion knowing my soul is glory-bound
Then you can write on my grave that the love I gave you
Saved you while I slowly drowned, yeah

I can't outrun the days gone by
You still got a hold on my heart
But you're worth every tear I cry
You still got a hold on my heart
I can't outrun the days gone by
You still got a hold on my heart
But you're worth every tear I cry
You still got a hold and there's no letting go
