And The Band Played
Jackie Boyz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That you gone, my pride, for a broken heart to hear is
Something I can't help I'm addicted to, everytime she walks, can hear when she talks
Is something I don't want but I have to do, let you go, I got to let you go
If you got something in your heart you need to let it out, let it out
If you love someone, let him go, you know just what I'm talking about, talking about
Let the song, test the heart, let the drum like the spark
Let the hole feel the need, have you all, sets you free
And the band played
And the band played
And the band played
And the band played
And the band played
Cloudes touchs the sky from the tears, that run and cross your face and talk
Cause I know, that you gone, there is nothing that can save us,
See I already know what I have to do, walk away from this, I wish I got one last kiss
I keep your picture by my beds side
I can't lie I'm learning for you
If you got something in your heart you need to let it out, let it out
If you love someone, let him go, you know just what I'm talking about, talking about
Even though it's killing me
Let the song, test the heart, let the drum like the spark
Let the hole feel the need, have you all, sets you free
And the band played (on)
And the band played (on)
And the band played (on)
And the band played (on)
And the band played (on)
My heart is bleeding at the fact that I can't have you right here next to me
So I take the stand and watch cause I know that I got to set you free
No more dumless now, I suffered like this shit for the whole world to see, world to see, you and me, you and me, listening to
Ohhhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhhh
Ohhhhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhh
Let the song, tell you're heart, let the drum like the spark
Let the hole feel the need, have you all, sets you free
And the band played (on)
And the band played (on)
And the band played (on)
And the band played (on)
And the band played (on)
