[Verse 1]
Listen to the sound of my heart
Play a tune for you
As it shatters to the floor
You can find your glue
A tale as old as time
Confined to feeling blue
Like the fable in your eyes
Tearing me in two
[Pre-Chorus]
The heart goes on
But not without a few scars
The heart goes on
Even when you're long gone
[Chorus]
Don't let me down again
Where are you now, where are you now?
Don't leave me alone again
I need you now, I need you now
Don't let me down again
Where are you now, where are you now?
Don't leave me alone again
I need you now, I need you...
[Verse 2]
How lonely does it feel?
At the bottom of your rage
A denial so surreal
You forget your pain
So tell me, tell me is your agony
Worth all of this?
So tell me please in time can we
Just forget?
[Pre-Chorus]
The heart goes on
(The heart keeps going on.)
The heart goes on
The heart keeps going on
[Chorus]
Don't let me down again
Where are you now, where are you now?
Don't leave me alone again
I need you now, I need you now
Don't let me down again
Where are you now, where are you now?
Don't leave me alone again
I need you now, I need you...
[Bridge]
I could never really know if you loved me
(I could never be sure if I loved anyone.)
You walked away and it destroyed me
(How was I suppose to know you see things different then I do?)
You stole my heart, you took it with you
And I won't be here when you come back around
(It was never my intention to tear you apart.)
It was never a question if I cared about you
[Post-Chorus]
Don't let me down again
(I let you down.)
Where are you now, I need you
