Lyrics and Music by Mike Connaris
Cyprus / Eurovision 2015

Tonight the rain is falling,
I’m feeling cold, and I’m
Out of my mind without you.
My head is spinning like a top
Back to the time we had a lot… going on.

   Now my world lies shattered,
   How quickly life can change.

Chorus:
     I always did everything for you,
     I gave you my heart,
     You gave me yours too.
     You’d make me feel
     I was really someone,
     But there’s one thing
     I should have done.

One day you think you have it all,
The next you’re staring at the wall…
In a dream.
The road that once was paved with gold
Has turned a rusty shade
Of all the saddest colours in the world.

   Now my life’s in tatters,
   How quickly it all can change.

Chorus:
     I always did everything for you,
     I gave you my heart,
     You gave me yours too.
     You’d make me feel
     I was really someone,
     But there’s one thing
     I should have done.

Bridge:
   I should have been there for you.
   I should have been there for you.
   I should have been there for you.
   I should have been there.

Chorus:
     I didn’t do everything for you,
     But I tried so hard
     And that’s the truth.
     I’d make you feel
     You were really someone,
     But there’s one thing
     I should have done.

     I nearly did everything for you,
     But I broke your heart,
     Now mine’s broken too.
     In your hour of need,
     I didn’t come…
     That’s the one thing
     I should… have done.
