[Verse]
Out amongst the walking wounded
Every face on every bus
Is you and me and him and her
And nothing can replace the us I knew
Nothing can replace the us I knew
[Pre-Chorus]
And no, I'm never gonna let you go
No I'm never gonna let you go
And now I know I had a choice
Though you never made it clear to me
I thought you never felt it deeply
Now I'm never gonna let you go
No I'm never gonna let you go
'Cause I could have loved you forever
I could have loved you forever
[Chorus]
What do you want from me?
You trying to punish me?
Punish me for loving you
Punish me for giving to you
Punish me for nothing I do
Punish me for nothing
Punish me for nothing, for nothing
[Verse]
Out amongst the walking wounded
Every face on every bus
Is you and me and him and her
And nothing can replace the us I knew
Nothing can replace the us I knew
[Pre-Chorus]
You know I'm never gonna let you go
Now I'm never gonna let you go
And now I know I had a choice
Though you never made it clear to me
I thought you never felt it deeply
[Solo]
[Bridge]
Now I'm never gonna let you go
No I'm never gonna let you go
'Cause I could have loved you forever
I could have loved you forever
Or I could have left you forever
I could have left you forever
[Chorus]
What do you want from me?
Are you trying to punish me?
Punish me for loving you
Punish me for giving to you
Punish me for nothing I do
Punish me for nothing
Punish me for nothing, nothing
[Verse]
Out amongst the walking wounded
Every face on every bus
Is you and me and him and her
And nothing can replace the us I knew
Nothing can replace the us I knew
Nothing can replace the us I knew
[Outro]
Out amongst the walking wounded
Every face on every train
Is you and me and him and her
Some days I think I could go insane
Some days I think I could go insane
Out amongst the walking wounded
Every face on every bus
Is you and me and him and her
And nothing can replace the us I knew
Nothing can replace the us I knew
[Pre-Chorus]
And no, I'm never gonna let you go
No I'm never gonna let you go
And now I know I had a choice
Though you never made it clear to me
I thought you never felt it deeply
Now I'm never gonna let you go
No I'm never gonna let you go
'Cause I could have loved you forever
I could have loved you forever
[Chorus]
What do you want from me?
You trying to punish me?
Punish me for loving you
Punish me for giving to you
Punish me for nothing I do
Punish me for nothing
Punish me for nothing, for nothing
[Verse]
Out amongst the walking wounded
Every face on every bus
Is you and me and him and her
And nothing can replace the us I knew
Nothing can replace the us I knew
[Pre-Chorus]
You know I'm never gonna let you go
Now I'm never gonna let you go
And now I know I had a choice
Though you never made it clear to me
I thought you never felt it deeply
[Solo]
[Bridge]
Now I'm never gonna let you go
No I'm never gonna let you go
'Cause I could have loved you forever
I could have loved you forever
Or I could have left you forever
I could have left you forever
[Chorus]
What do you want from me?
Are you trying to punish me?
Punish me for loving you
Punish me for giving to you
Punish me for nothing I do
Punish me for nothing
Punish me for nothing, nothing
[Verse]
Out amongst the walking wounded
Every face on every bus
Is you and me and him and her
And nothing can replace the us I knew
Nothing can replace the us I knew
Nothing can replace the us I knew
[Outro]
Out amongst the walking wounded
Every face on every train
Is you and me and him and her
Some days I think I could go insane
Some days I think I could go insane
