Boxing up the fireworks
Cancel my parade
The street is empty tonight, tonight
Everything is quiet now
The city holds it's breathe for me
The spirit has died, it died
Running my whole life to reach this place
And just when I arrive the moment fades out

Will you let me
Stop time
Your hand in mine
Bring me closer as it all gets ripped away
And I said goodbye to the clearest eyes
I wont be with you but I wont be far away

I don't need an answer
But if you rewrote the past you think you'd just leave me out, leave me out
Will you spin your head around in every crowded room
To see if I can be found, be found
Every single plan you will forget
So do what makes you happy no regrets now

I wont let you
Stop time
Your hand in mine
Bring me closer as it all gets ripped away
And I said goodbye to the clearest eyes
I wont be with you but I wont be far away

I remember when you asked me how
Far that I could throw this love I found
And then I heard you say you'd wait around

I wont let you
Stop time
Your hand in mine
Bring me closer as it all gets ripped away
And I said goodbye to the clearest eyes
I wont be with you but I wont be far away

And this is goodbye, goodbye
This is goodbye, goodbye
The street is empty tonight
The street is empty tonight
