The chords are pretty much tentative till I come up with something better. I can't display them here because of some problem with the alignment...The alignment of the words sung in the background in one of the verses is screwed up too

"Answers"

[Acoustic Guitar intro]

The things we never got to do,
The things I never said to you,
I guess they'll be lost, in days or years
They'll never dry, this river of tears

The words that never left my mouth
The ones held back because of doubt
Will I ever get to say?
Will I live through everyday?

[Chorus + drums + guitars]
The memories, the pain they bring
But I'll never wanna forget those things
Cuz' it was you who let me live this dream
Waking up was cruel, it seems
I know for me it's the perfect life
The way you held me every night
I felt as if I was in Heaven
On an angel's wings, you were an angel sent to love me

[Acoustic Guitar + drums]
And as I cry myself to sleep
To fall into the hands of dreams
I writhe in pain, my soul in flames
I die away more everyday

I awake so drained, blood in the rain
These feelings, they won't be the same
I lived a life, the perfect dream
But now I'm broken, it's not meant to be

[Chorus]
The memories, the pain they bring
But I'll never wanna forget those things
Cuz' it was you who let me live this dream
Waking up was cruel, it seems
I know for me it's the perfect life
The way you held me every night
I felt as if I was in Heaven
On an angel's wings, you were an angel sent to love me

[short distortion guitar chord section + drums]

And I can never forget those eyes of yours
And the way you made me feel
It's not your fault although its over
I know you're sorry still

Go live your life, go find your answers
You know I'll always be right here for you
I'd gladly suffer everyday
Is it okay if I hope you'd say someday

Stay with me
Cuz' I just can't bear, can't bear to see you bleed
I need you back, back here with me dear
Stay with me
And we'll live the life we've only seen in dreams
I've learnt to love again, and I've remembered how it feels, so

Stay with me
(I'll never wanna forget those things)
Cuz' I just can't bear, can't bear to see you bleed
(cuz it was you who let me live this dream)
I need you back, back here with me dear
Stay with me
(I know for me it's the perfect life)
And we'll live the life we've only seen in dreams
(The way you held me every night)
I've learnt to love again, and I've remembered how it feels

[Lead guitar solo] (and)

[Chorus]
[Acoustic Guitar + Voice only]
The memories, the pain they bring
But I'll never wanna forget those things
Cuz' it was you who let me live this dream
Waking up was cruel, it seems
I know for me it's the perfect life
The way you held me every night
I felt as if I was in Heaven
On an angel's wings, you were an angel sent to love me

An angel sent to love me

I know it looks a little like Secondhand Serenade's 'Like a Knife' and I do admit it's a little similar in parts but this is as original as I could have done it.
