Verse

Haven't we been here before 
Footsteps lead down to the note on the door
That says, I can't stay here anymore
And haven't we felt this same way
Sure in our hearts, but afraid just the same
To say, I can't stay one minute more

Pre-Chorus

You might think that it's hopeless
Beyond our control
But that's not necessarily so
Can't you see there's a chance
For the daring young soul
Who's finally learned to say no
No, I won't be misused
Ignored or refused
And I won't just give up and let go

Chorus

So tonight, hold me close to you
And don't give up what's important to you
And as time rolls on
Nothing can stand in our way
(And I) I believe if we learn from the past
We'd say, haven't we been here before 
(And I) I believe if we open our hearts
We'd find keys to unlock every door 

Post-Chorus

Dark would turn into light
We'd be strong
We'd be right

Chorus

So tonight, hold me close to you
And don't give up what's important to you
And as time rolls on
Nothing will stand in our way
(And I) I believe if we learn from the past
We'd say, haven't we been here before 
(Oh, and I) I believe if we open our hearts
We'd find keys to unlock every door 

Post-Chorus

Hearts could change (Don't say no) overnight (Don't say no)
We'd be strong... (Don't say no) we'd be right

Outro

So stay with me now
The future is ours
And we'll be the ones who go on
