Part Of Me

They say the Devil takes the best of us I guess I always knew you weren't like the rest of us You held the party in your hands like it would slip away, like moments passed How I miss the way you used to laugh Is that the way it goes, you trade your soul to be a rose? Give everything you've got to give before you've got to go I guess that no one knows I guess that I just didn't see the lows Oh, we all fall down Oh, we all fall down I wish you told me how you felt that night Now I'll never get to change your mind But with all of the memories You'll always be part of me I'll tell your mother how we used to laugh But it's never gonna bring you back Now you're only a memory But you'll always be part of me, part of me I remember times when we'd stay out 'til morning light And I remember how you'd say how much you'd miss those nights And I wish that I'd have noticed all those cracks in your smile 'Cause it took a while We could have put stars together, planted roots and lived forever We could have been kings of our own kingdom, had you let me help you But you're conditioned to believe it only makes you weaker 'Til it chokes you and you're barely breathing Oh, we all fall down Oh, we all fall down I wish you told me how you felt that night Now I'll never get to change your mind But with all of the memories You'll always be part of me I'll tell your mother how we used to laugh But it's never gonna bring you back Now you're only a memory But you'll always be part of me Part of me Oh-whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh I wish you told me how you felt that night Now I'll never get to change your mind But with all of the memories You'll always be part of me I'll tell your mother how we used to laugh But it's never gonna bring you back (bring you back) Now you're only a memory (only a memory) But you'll always be part of me, part of me
