Damn,
The Doctor's just
Finished telling me
There's no time

Losing you could be the
End of me and that I
Should do the things
That I wanna do
How could I?

Without you,
Without you,
Oh, oh

'Cause your the only
One I let in
Tell me how to stop
This feeling
Spreading
I'm hoping somehow
That you know
Oh oh

Let's just get back together,
We should've never broke up
They're telling me
That my heart won't beat again
We should've stayed together
'Cause when you left me it stopped
They're telling me
That my heart won't beat again

Won't beat again
It's killing me
Hey, hey, hey

If I died,
Yeah would you come
To my funeral
Would you cry?
Would you feel some regret
That we didn't try?
Or would you fall apart
The same as I, I, I, I

Oh,
And would it always
Haunt you baby?
That you missed your chance
To save me?
'Cause you know its not
Too late
Hey, hey ,hey

Let's just get back together,
We should've never broke up
They're telling me
That my heart won't beat again
We should've stayed together
'Cause when you left me it stopped
They're telling me
That my heart won't beat again

Won't beat again
It's killing me
That my heart
Won't Beat again
Won't beat again
It's killing me

Hey,
I need you
Back in my arms
I need love CPR
'Cause its getting
So cold, ooh
I need you back again,
Or else I'll never mend,
And girl if I go
I go, I go, I go

Let's just get back together,
We should've never broke up
They're telling me
That my heart won't beat again
We should've stayed together
'Cause when you left me it stopped
They're telling me
That my heart won't beat again

Won't beat again
It's killing me
That my heart
Won't beat again
Won't beat again
It's killing me

Hey, come on
I'm beggin'
Please don't let me, go

Hey, come on
I'm beggin'
Please don't let me, go

Hey, come on
I'm beggin'
Please don't let me, go

Hey, come on
I'm beggin'
Please don't let me, go
