How many times
Do we have to talk it over (yeah)
How many times
Before we understand
All the things we should’ve done
And all the things we never did
I read the signs
Baby, each and every day
You read the signs
But yet we stayed
All the things we should’ve done
Where and when did it go wrong (tell me)
How could we go wrong
I believe in what we had
I believe in what we said
We gotta understand
That it’s time to let it go
Movin’ on to yesterday
Even there we’d be the same
But now it’s time to make
The final cut
(The final cut)
(The final cut)
So many things
That we always took for granted
So many years
Down the drain, hey
Looking back on the love
For you were always on my mind
All the things we should’ve done
Where and when did it go wrong
How could we go wrong
I believe in what we had
I believe in what we said
We gotta understand
That it’s time to let it go
Movin’ on to yesterday
Even there we’d be the same
But now it’s time to make
The final cut
(The final cut)
We grew up together
Built our dreams together
But now it’s gone
We made plans forever
Nothing lasts forever
Jump to move on
All the things we should’ve done
Where and when did it go wrong
How could we go wrong
I believe in what we had
I believe in what we said
We gotta understand
That it’s time to let it go
Movin’ on to yesterday
Even there we’d be the same
Let’s make the final cut
I believe in what we had
I believe in what we said
We gotta understand
That it’s time to let it go
Movin’ on to yesterday
Even there we’d be the same
But now it’s time to make
The final cut
