I used to be strong, strong as a tree
 I stood in the sun and I swayed in the breeze
 The pride of the forest
 Standing so tall
 But then came the lightning out of the blue
 She [bad word] at my heart and tore me in two
 And I fell to the ground
 In the gathering storm
 Whether I failed you
 Whether I failed myself
 You know that I need you
 More than anyone else

 Now will love me Nevermore
 Or is there a way to heal the hurting?
 If we are still worth fighting for
 Tell me now or Nevermore

 I live in a world where Winter holds sway
 Your [bad word] in me has withered away
 Hoping in vain
 For [bad word] of Spring
 My heart is hollow
 You are a stranger to me
 It’s the season of sorrow
 And I am a man bereaved

 Now will you love me Nevermore
 Or is there a way to heal the hurting?
 If we are still worth fighting for
 Tell me now or Nevermore

 As I watch you turn and go
 In the gently falling snow
 I will dream for a thousand years
 Quietly waiting,
 Quietly waiting, waiting, waiting

 Now will you love me Nevermore
 Or is there a way to heal the hurting?
 If we are still worth fighting for
 Tell me now or Nevermore
 Tell me now or Nevermore
 Tell me now or Nevermore
