Haven't We Been Here Before Lyrics - Kilroy Was Here - Styx

Written by tommy shaw 

Lead vocals by tommy shaw 

Haven't we been here before 

Footsteps lead down to the note on the door 

That says I can't stay here anymore 

And haven't we felt this same way 

Sure in our hearts, but afraid just the same 

To say I can't stay one minute more 

You might think that it's hopeless 

Beyond our control 

But that's not necessarily so 

Can't you see there's a chance 

For the daring young soul 

Who's finally learned to say no 

No, I won't be misused 

Ignored or refused 

And I won't just give up and let go 

So tonight hold me close to you 

And don't give up what's important to you 

And as time rolls on 

Nothing can stand in our way 

And I believe if we learn from the past 

We'd say haven't we been here before 

Oh, and I believe if we open our hearts 

We'd find keys to unlock every door 

Dark would turn into light 

We'd be strong 

We'd be right 

So tonight hold me close to you 

And don't give up what's important to you 

And as time rolls on 

Nothing will stand in our way 

And I believe if we learn from the past 

We'd say haven't we been here before 

Oh, and I believe if we open our hearts 

We'd find keys to unlock every door 

Hearts could change overnight 

We'd be strong...we'd be right 

So stay with me now 

The future is ours 

And we'll be the ones who go on
