I've been up all night, you've been puttin' up a fight. Seems like nothin' I say
gets through. How did this old bed fit a world between me and you. We said
"Goodnight" but the silence was so thick you could cut it with a knife. We've
hit the wall again and there's nothin' I can do. You're the one, yea, I've put all my
trust in your hands. C'mon and look in my eyes, here I am, here I am You don't understand
me, my baby. You don't seem to know that I need you so much. You don't understand me, my
feelings, the reason I'm breathin', my love The mornin' comes and you're reaching out for
me just like everything's the same and I let myself believe things are gonna change. When
you kiss my mouth and you hold my body close, do you wonder who's inside? Maybe there's no
way we could feel each other's pain. Tell me why it gets harder to know where I stand. I
guess loneliness found a new friend, here I am You don't understand me... You don't seem
to get me, my baby. You don't really see that I live for your touch. You don't understand
me, my dreams or the things I believe in, my love. You don't understand me. You don't
understand me. Understand me.
We grew up together, we've been here forever. Barefoot in the summer, cold in
stormy weather. She taught me all there is, like magic and love, lots of forgotten words
But now, she doesn't live here anymore. She's off and she's gone, she doesn't live here
anymore. I'm sorry that's all there is to it, I'm sorry that's all. She dressed just like
a painter, a female street Picasso and I, I will remember the heaven in her laughter. And
the scent of her sweet perfume when we made love under an August moon But now, she doesn't
live here anymore. She's off and she's gone, she doesn't live here anymore. She's gone
since long, so long, she doesn't live here anymore. She took off and left home, she
doesn't live here anymore. I'm sorry that's all there is to it, I'm sorry that's all.
That's all.
In everything I see you appear with me, how come? How come? And everything I do involves
you too. We are like one. In my life there has been so many changes and I don't want to be
left out in the rain I don't want to get hurt, I've done my time. All I want from you is
to tell the truth. I don't want to get hurt no more this time. I don't want to go blind
and find it's falling apart all the time In the middle of a dream you are there for me,
your face, your lips. But there's no way you can tell cos I hide it really well, so well.
In my life there has been loving and lying and I don't need another reason to cry I don't
want to get hurt... I don't want to go blind and find I'm falling apart one more time.
