I've broken every bone for you,
Burned myself alive for you,
Fell down from the sky for you,
But youe not the one for me.

I dug myself a grave for you
shot life in the heart for you,
I lust for every part of you
but you're not the one for me.

Cos in the cold light of day
The colours all fade away,
And were left with monotony
And nothing to say.
In the cold light of day
The colours all fade away,
And were left with monotony
And nothing to say.

I lost myself in a dream of you,
My pulse raced to the stars for you,
in love with every part of you
but you're not the one for me.

i always looked out for you,
wanted life to be fun for you,
you said i was the one for you
but you're not the one for me.

Cos in the cold light of day
The colours all fade away,
And were left with monotony
And nothing to say.
In the cold light of day
The colours all fade away,
And were left with monotony
And nothing to say.

    wicked band...amazing live as well! This song is great as it shows how you can feel so much for someone and yet it still isn't right. At least thats what it seems. The person who seemed perfect, is really not as amazing and 'perfect' as you had first imagined. :D

    this song really reminds me of a couple i know, they were so in love then he realised that she wasn't the 1 for him. the realisation really hits him and he feels so bad about having to let her go but he just dont love her anymore eventhough he gave so much up for her. the song is sad but relates to alot of relationships people are in.
