lyrics
Holding my breath 'til I choke I choke on your name
Trying my best not to see
Not to see that we've changed
Talking for two can get old
And I'm tired of that game
Don't wanna waste what we had I hope you'll feel the same
We both know that the time is right
Just hold on
Pause your life with me tonight
We can change who we are
And be better than ever
I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting
Trying to give in 'til there's no
No more to give
Feeling estranged from yourself
That's no way to live
We both know that it's worth the fight
Let's go on and on and on and on
Pause your life with me tonight
We can change who we are
And be better than ever
Walk the line with me tonight
We'll go back to the start
And be better than ever
I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting...
Pause your life with me tonight
We can change who we are
And be better than ever
Walk the line with me tonight
We'll go back to the start
And be better than ever
Pause your life with me tonight (I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting)
We can change who we are (I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting)
And be better than ever (I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting)
Walk the line with me tonight (I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting)
We'll go back to the start (I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting)
I'll stop the war if you stop the war
Trying my best not to see
Not to see that we've changed
Talking for two can get old
And I'm tired of that game
Don't wanna waste what we had I hope you'll feel the same
We both know that the time is right
Just hold on
Pause your life with me tonight
We can change who we are
And be better than ever
I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting
Trying to give in 'til there's no
No more to give
Feeling estranged from yourself
That's no way to live
We both know that it's worth the fight
Let's go on and on and on and on
Pause your life with me tonight
We can change who we are
And be better than ever
Walk the line with me tonight
We'll go back to the start
And be better than ever
I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting...
Pause your life with me tonight
We can change who we are
And be better than ever
Walk the line with me tonight
We'll go back to the start
And be better than ever
Pause your life with me tonight (I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting)
We can change who we are (I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting)
And be better than ever (I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting)
Walk the line with me tonight (I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting)
We'll go back to the start (I'll stop the war if you stop the fighting)
I'll stop the war if you stop the war
