I was blown away, what could I say?
It all seemed to make sense
You've taken away everything
And I can't do without, I try to see the good in life
But good things in life are hard to find

Blow it away, blow it away
Can we make this something good?

Well, I tried to do it right this time around
Let's start over, I tried to do it right this time around, it's not over
There's a part of me that's dead and in the ground
This love is killing me, but you're the only one, it's not over

Taken all I could take, and I can not wait
We're wasting too much time
Being strong, holding on
Can't let it bring us down
My life with you means everything
So I won't give up that easily

Blow it away, blow it away
Can we make this something good?

'Cause it's all misunderstood
Well, I tried to do it right this time around
Let's start over, I tried to do it right this time around
It's not over, 'cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killing me, but you're the only one, it's not over

We can't let this get away
Let it out, let it out
Don't get caught up in yourself, let it out

Let's start over
I tried to do it right this time around, it's not over
'Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killing me, but you're the only one
It's not over, let's start over
It's not over, oh yeah, yeah!
This love is killing me, but you're the only one, it's not over

    General Comment:I'm seeing Daughtry in concert June 12 in Hampton. I sure hope he performs this song. This song and Crashed are my favorite songs from Chris Daughtry. I don't have any of his albums. But I have a few of his songs though.

    General Comment:this song means a lot to me in many ways because i can relate or i used to be able to relate since i was in love for about 3 yrs and we broke it off n got back together its because they were the only one for me and i couldnt see myself with anyone else and its how he says its not over lets start over..because they dont want to let this slip away..n keep on pushing forward but sometimes its just got end sometime.

    General Comment:It's about a relationship between a guy and a girl, that gets rocky. It could be there second or third chance trying to make it work and he is troubled by it not getting better but does not want to give up. And it's about them doing all they can to make it work no matter how hard it is....then also I think it's the guy that may want it more than his girl. You can tell they are having hard time as it is referenced several times.
    "Can we make this something gooood
    Cause its all misunderstoooood
    Well I tried to do it right this time around
    Let’s start over
    I tried to do it right this time around
    It’s not over
    Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
    This love is killing me
    But you’re the only one"

    It's fairly simple to understand I think.

    General Comment:This song kinda makes me think of my situation because I met this guy last year and we became pretty good friends and I seriously fell in love, he could make me laugh at everything and yea, but than this year we don't talk and we don't hang out and it's like we didn't even know each other, and I really don't think its over between us i mean it can't be:[

    General Comment:The entire thoguht behind this man's music is worthless. I can only hope that this guy gets ran over by a car very soon. I also hope that whoever is writing his music gets murdered by an obsessed fan... I hope they skin him alive and bury him in salt.

    General Comment:I like Daughtry... and this song is pretty good. He said it was about having a relationship that is terrible, but you love the other so much you can't let go... or something like that. He's alright... Chris... i dont no the rest of the band mates. At least we know he can sing... I heard the Hinder guy on the internet... i dont think he sounded great.

    General Comment:I like Chris Daughtry. This song kind of blew me away. Normally the first album of anyone from American Idol is gay and pop-ish, but he stepped away. I think this album is far from lame, and i don't understand why someone is on here proclaiming his hate for it. No one cares. People are on this site to see what other people think about the lyrics, not necessarily the whole album or how much you hate it. Obviously you're one of the only ones who thinks its lame is you read all the other comments, Tokabi. Get a life, please, and if you don't like him, then look up someone you do like.
