We have been here once too often
I am quite sure you had it once
But then, who knows…You lost it
And though there’s little we can do now
I’d do much more, if I knew how
Can you think – maybe dream
What peace on earth might we have seen?
Tell me that you’ll be there for me,
But for my answer, please don’t wait
Just see: Joy for us was never meant to be
There’s not much hope in your sad eyes
Please don’t pretend to know our lives
Twelve hateful words condemned one day:
Lonely misery such must be the way
And while I want to say that we should talk,
Please do tell me if we ought…
There’s two completely different worlds that say we ought’n’naught
And if you really didn’t know…This is only me,
I wanted you to really want – and want no one but me
There doesn’t ever pass a day when I don’t think about you
And though it may not mean a lot to you:
I’m always watching
Now everyday’s that one same day
I still can’t sleep without you.
But when I do, be sure it’s true,
My dreams will spin about you.
