Artist：Leona Lewis & OneRepublic
Song：Lost Then Found

Staring at tears on the pages..
Of letters I never couldve write..
I know love isnt painless,
but its what there is, its worth the fight.
Play it over, and over..
I wish I could turn back
time, baby ..
We were wrong, but we
could be right.

Why do we say things
we cant¹ take back?
Why do we miss what we never had ..
Both of us fell to the ground,
The love was so lost,
it couldnt be found.
Why do you tend to forget
whose vain²,
Im tired of crying out
at the sound of your name
Why dont we turn this
around, loving the enemy..
Dont you want to be lost
then found?
Lost then found, lost then found ..
Loving the enemy
We could be lost then found

Empty glasses on tables,
echoes³ fill these rooms..
The memories go where we go,
Then like the subcase
that you never lose..
If theres another upon
me, I swear to make things right..
Whatever we lost, I know
we can find..

Why do we say things
we cant take back?
Why do we miss what we never had ..
Both of us fell to the ground,
The love was so lost,
it couldnt be found.
Why do you tend to forget
whose vain,
Im tired of crying out
at the sound of your name
Why dont we turn this
around, loving the enemy..
Dont you want to be lost
then found?

No words can come without...
Cant stop the rain, I
wish you could take it back
But its too late, too late ...

Why do we say things
we cant take back?
Why do we miss what we never had ..
Both of us fell to the ground,
The love was so lost,
it couldnt be found.
Why do you tend to forget
whose vain,
Im tired of crying out
at the sound of your name
Why dont we turn this
around, loving the enemy..
Dont you want to be lost
then found?
Lost then found, lost then found..
Loving the enemy
We could be lost then found

The worlds are pouring
out, cant stop the rain
Wish you could take it
back but its too late
Its too late
We could be lost then found
