Can you help me out, 'cause I feel like I could use
absolution now
And the ones I love don't know how it gets me down
And I'd tell them all about it
But they'd say I'm wasting time
'Cause it's not like me, to leave a friendship in
such disharmony
And this cold war isn't how it's supposed to be
If I'm wrong I'll let it be
But you will stay right on my mind
New time, new life
Where I'm not your only one
Help me put this storm to rest
And leave the clouds behind the sun
Well it ended bad, and the way in which you moved
on just made me sad
Like you leaped from my arms into another man's
As I watched it happen
I began the closing of that door
But I'm cool with it, any less and I'd be a hypocrite
Now it took some time for me to forgive you this
But I know that I will never get
The way I was before
New time, new life
Where I'm not your only one
Help me put this storm to rest
And leave the clouds behind the sun
New time, new life
Though the past can't be undone
Help me put this storm to rest
And leave the clouds behind the sun
'Cause I'm moving now, And I’m dancing in the arms of another now
And I feel like I can break from the shackles now
I can speak to you without the fear
Of feeling something more
New time, new life
Where I'm not your only one
Help me put this storm to rest
And leave the clouds behind the sun
New time, new life
Though the past can't be undone
Help me put this storm to rest
And leave the clouds behind the sun
