[Verse 1]
You and i got something
But it's all and then it's nothing to me, yeah
And i got my defenses
When it comes through your intentions for me, yeah
And we wake up in the breakdown
With the things we never thought we could be, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
We got to move you darling
I thought i lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

[Chorus]
And i want to get free
Talk to me
I can feel you falling
And i wanted to be
All you need
Somehow here is gone

[Verse 2]
I am no solution
To the sound of this pollution in me, yeah
And i was not the answer
So forget you ever thought it was me, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
We got to move you darling
I thought i lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

[Chorus]
And i want to get free
Talk to me
I can feel you falling
And i wanted to be
All you need
Somehow here is gone

[Bridge]
And i don't need the fallout
Of all the past that's in between us
And i'm not holding on
And all your lies weren't enough to keep me here

[Chorus]
And i want to get free
Talk to me
I can feel you falling
And i wanted to be
All you need
Somehow here is gone


[Outro]
And i want to get free
Talk to me
I can feel you falling
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
And i can feel you falling
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
Somehow here is gone, yeah
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
Somehow here is gone, yeah

The Goo Goo Dolls

The Goo Goo Dolls are an American rock band formed in 1986 in Buffalo, NY, during one of Buffalo’s most prolific underground music phases. The band was formed by John Rzeznik (Also known as Johnny Rzeznik), lead singer and songwriter for the band, with bassist/vocalist Robby Takac, and drummer George Tutuska. Mike Malinin later replaced Tutuska as the band’s drummer.

The band has released twelve studio albums between 1986 and 2017, but they are best known for platinum-selling A Boy Named Goo (1995) and Dizzy Up the Girl (1998). These mid- to late 1990s albums contain the Goo Goo Dolls' biggest hits to date – Name and Iris most notably, but also Slide, Black Balloon, and Dizzy

These hits made the Goo Goo Dolls a household name for radio-friendly “prom night power balladry” (as one Rolling Stone review put it), but the band’s early output was often far rougher musically, melding the band’s edgier punk influences with an often soft sensibility in the mold of the band’s early heroes, The Replacements. One can hear these influences on many songs on A Boy Named Goo though these affinities would fade after Dizzy Up the Girl.
