Styx — Havent We Been Here Before

[Verse: Tommy Shaw] Haven't we been here before Footsteps lead down to the note on the door That says, I can't stay here anymore And haven't we felt this same way Sure in our hearts, but afraid just the same To say, I can't stay one minute more [Pre-Chorus: Tommy Shaw] You might think that it's hopeless Beyond our control But that's not necessarily so Can't you see there's a chance For the daring young soul Who's finally learned to say no No, I won't be misused Ignored or refused And I won't just give up and let go [Chorus: Tommy Shaw, Dennis DeYoung, & both] So tonight, hold me close to you And don't give up what's important to you And as time rolls on Nothing can stand in our way (And I) I believe if we learn from the past We'd say, haven't we been here before (And I) I believe if we open our hearts We'd find keys to unlock every door [Post-Chorus: Tommy Shaw] Dark would turn into light We'd be strong We'd be right [Chorus: Tommy Shaw, Dennis DeYoung, & both] So tonight, hold me close to you And don't give up what's important to you And as time rolls on Nothing will stand in our way (And I) I believe if we learn from the past We'd say, haven't we been here before (Oh, and I) I believe if we open our hearts We'd find keys to unlock every door [Post-Chorus: Tommy Shaw & Dennis DeYoung] Hearts could change (Don't say no) overnight (Don't say no) We'd be strong... (Don't say no) we'd be right [Outro: Tommy Shaw] So stay with me now The future is ours And we'll be the ones who go on
