[Verse 1] When you were by my side We would shine like the northern lights Their glow is often green Felt like I could do anything [Pre-Chorus] Heartless darkness crept across and covered up my eyes How do I stop your shadow from living all in black and white? [Chorus] And it's forty nights since you quit my life Left without a sound Left without a sound, I hate this To feel so helpless And it's times like this that I miss your kiss Wish we never met, wish I never let me love you And never felt this Helpless, helpless [Verse 2] The bruises never stay Turn from blue to yellow, then they fade They fade, they fade, they fade But you broke me like a bone I might never be whole again [Pre-Chorus] Heartless darkness crept across and covered up my eyes How do I stop your shadow from living all in black and white? [Chorus] And it's forty nights since you quit my life Left without a sound Left without a sound, I hate this To feel so helpless And it's times like this that I miss your kiss Wish we never met, wish I never let me love you And never felt this Helpless, helpless [Bridge] Go be happy, go and be free It's all the same to me Go be friend, go be enemy And let's be strangers, let the pain just go away [Chorus] And it's forty nights since you quit my life Left without a sound Left without a sound, I hate this How I hate, I hate, I hate this And it's times like this when I miss your kiss Wish we never met, wish I never let me love you I'm so helpless, helpless, helpless Helpless, helpless Helpless, helpless
