Golden days, life was play Pain was all a world away We went to school we learned the rules We trusted all they had to say Then life took a turn We had to learn And we can't go back again And my heart is breaking, just for you, just for you And my arms are open, just for you just for you Just for you God was god, dreams were dreams Life was all cake and ice cream Truths were true and lies were lies We thought love would never die But the world moved on My illusions gone And I don't know who to blame And my heart is breaking, just for you just for you And my arms are openâ?¦just for you just for you And these tears I'm crying are just for you just for you Just forâ?¦ you I'm looking for protection Give me shelter from the storm I just hope this light inside me keeps me strong And my heart is breakingâ?¦Just for you just for you And my arms are open, just for you just for you And these tears I'm crying are for you just for you Just for you Just for you Oh my heart is breaking (my heart is breaking) And my arms are open (And my arms are open) Oh these tears I'm crying (these tears I'm crying) There just for you (Are just for u) Oh yeah
