“I'm letting go of all my lonely yesterdays, I've forgiven myself for the mistakes I've made, now there's just one thing, the only thing I wanna do. I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you.”

“And if I get it right everybody will be singing along, yeahAnd when they see you on the street they’ll say,'Hey, ain’t you the girl in that song?”

“well she was precious like a flowershe grew wild, wild but innocenta perfect prayer in a desperate hourshe was everything beautiful and differentstupid boy, you can't fence that instupid boy, it's like holdin' back the wind”

“She laid her heart and soul right in your handsAnd you stole her every dream and crushed her plansShe never even knew she had a choiceAnd that's what happens when the only voice she hears is telling her she can'tYou stupid boy”

“It took a while for her to figure out she could run but when she did she was long gone, Long gone..”
