(track 3 - time 3:48)

Look at me so strong and free
I've got a front row seat here on the top of the world
People say I get my way
My life's a holiday
And I'm such a independant girl
I play the game by my own rules
No one can tear me apart
Love was only meant for fools
Who gamble with their hearts

Now and then
I can't escape what used to be
Now and then
His memory rolls right down my cheek
Now and then
I stay up all night long
Think about a love that's gone
I'll never know again
It's lost somewhere between
Now and then

I've built a wall so wide and tall
No one can make me fall
No one can make me change my mind
I've got a plan and I understand
How dreams made out of sand
Can disappear with nothin' left behind
Oh but there's another side of me
Nobody really knows about
A shadow that only I can see
When the lights go out

Now and then
I can't escape what used to be
Now and then
His memory rolls right down my cheek
Now and then
I stay up all night long
Think about a love that's gone
I'll never know again
It's lost somewhere between
Now and then

Now and then
I stay up all night long
Think about a love that's gone
I'll never know again
It's lost somewhere between
Now and then
