Verse
*********************************************
Here Guitar1 is doing some simple things, but if you
are going to play this song live, i recommend you to
play random arpegios according to chords.
And also it’s not necsesary to play Guitar2 because
it’s sound is really weak

Lyrics
This time all I want is you
There is no one else who
Can take your place
This time you burned me with your eyes
You see past all the lies
You take it all away
I’ve seen it all and it’s never enough
It keeps leaving me needing you
Take me away
Take me away
I’ve got nothing left to say
Just take me away
I try to make my way to you
But still I feel so lost
I don’t know what else
I can do
I’ve seen it all and it’s never enough
It keeps leaving me needing you
Take me away
Take me away
I’ve got nothing left to say
Just take me away
Don’t give up on me yet
Don’t forget who I am
I know I’m not there yet
But don’t let me stay here alone
This time all I want is you
There is no one else who
Can take your place
This time you burned me with your eyes
You see past all the lies
You take it all away
I’ve seen it all and it’s never enough
It keeps leaving me needing you
Take me away
Take me away
I’ve got nothing left to say
Just take me away
