TEN YEARS Music and lyrics by Cruz Contreras
Step right up face the music alone You took the bait willin' now you're on your own No way out and no way back Never knew a heart could hurt like that
People change and there's little to say You never knew me anyway Tears are fallin' and there's just no end Cry me a river can't go back again
Ten long years and a short goodbye Tears and dust, let them wheels fly Hoping for the best no plan in sight Ten long years and a short goodbye
Everybody sees what they want to see Tell me lies still I believe Best of intentions meet reality Shattered hearts as far as i can see
Ten long years and a short goodbye Tears and dust, let them wheels fly Hoping for the best no plan in sight Ten long years and a short goodbye
This voice in my head, walking a tightrope A pounding in my mind, it's such a winding road Should I stay or go? How will I really know? The point of no return is a window
Ten long years and a short goodbye Tears and dust, let them wheels fly Hoping for the best no plan in sight Ten long years and a short goodbye
