Oh, for so long I´ve tried to shield you from the world
Oh, you couldn´t face the freedom on your own
Here I am left in silence

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
All that´s done´s forgiven
You´ll always be mine
I know deep inside
All that´s done´s forgiven

I watched the clouds drifting away
Still the sun can´t warm my face
I know it was destined to go wrong
You were looking for the great escape
To chase your demons away

Oh, for so long I´ve tried to shield you from the world
Oh, you couldn´t face the freedom on your own
And here I am left in silence

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
All that´s done´s forgiven
You´ll always be mine
I know deep inside
All that´s done´s forgiven

I´ve been so lost since you´ve gone
Why not me before you?
Why did fate deceive me?
Everything turned out so wrong
Why did you leave me in silence?

Can you still see the heart of me?
All my agony fades away
when you hold me in your embrace

Don´t tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don´t tear me down
You´ve opened the door now, don´t let it close

I´m here on the edge again
I wish I could let it go
I know that I´m only one step away
from turning it around

Can you still see the heart of me?
All my agony fades away
when you hold me in your embrace

Don´t tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe

Don´t tear it down, what´s left of me
Make my heart a better place

I tried many times but nothing was real
Make it fade away, don´t break me down
I want to believe that this is for real
Save me from my fear
Don´t tear me down

Don´t tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Don´t tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
