You'll have to watch the doors slam behind me
Smell the cloud of dust from my car
Taste your
own tears on the pillow
Feel the break deep in your heart
Maybe then you'll come to your senses
You'll hear what
I can't make you see
When you ask yourself the same question
When did you ever listen to me
What I want is to hold you
Cause my world without you is just another lonely place to be
But
what I need is to hold out
Until you have no doubt
There's only one love for you and it's me
So I'll be strong 'til
you can believe what I need
I want that same emotion that we once had
How can I settle after that
He would be good for
me would that be enough
I do feel something I could call it love
And that's what I'd do
If I'd never loved you
My heart's been cared for
My heart's been used
It only makes me more confused
Just when
I'm sure I've gotten wise
That's when I realize
The more I learn
The less I understand about love
Too soon there wasn't much to say
I checked my watch and said guess I'll be going
He touched
me but I turned away
When the tears fell he had no way of knowing
There's no denying he still gets to me
But I'll
only cry when I know he can't see
How could you walk away
Have you nothing left to say
Does your heart just shut down
When
you tell it to
How can I understand
What goes on inside a man
Leaving love behind
Is something I could never do
How
could you
You can dream of what might have been
You can cry for what won't pass again
And you can say
there's every reason you should leave
But you can't say you don't love me anymore
I'm gonna make it to the place
When I no longer see your face
Someday I'll convince myself
I don't care
Not yet but I'm gettin' there
Why do we smile and never let the hurt inside us show
I don't know
Why do we have to hide
the tears and let them walk away
I can't say
I know a little about this
I know a little about that
Know a little
'bout so many things, y'all
But when it comes to love
I don't know nothin' at all
still can't believe you hurt me
Just when I thought it was safe to come in
You let me
want you, and need you, and then
You left me, like a child in the rain
Now I'm mending myself of the pain
Just say we stand a chance
And you're willing to try
Or say there's nothing left for you
and tell me goodbye
We both know love has got to be an open door
And if it's time for you to fly
I can't hold
you any more
I can tell you've been hurt real bad before
But you're face to face with love knocking at
your door
All you need is a little trust to set you free
Well, here I am, don't hold back, baby talk to me
I'll get even with you
For the hard times you helped me through
I'll give it back to you
All the love you've given me
For the rest of my life
Everyday and every night
If it's the last thing I'll
ever do
I'll get even with you
Here in the night I see the sun
Here in the dark our two hearts are one
It's out of our
hands we can't stop what we have begun
And love just took me by surprise
Looking through your eyes
I believe in you
And nothin' less.
I believe in you
Can't help myself.
You're all the
hope,
The reason that I need
I used to breathe you
I used to need you
I used to hang on every word that you say
It used
to please you
To try to make me someone else
And I thank you from my heart for your help
Cause you made me find myself
Fate plays no favorites
Everybody gets burned
It's not your fault, it's just your turn
You
once were the rock that I held on to
Now let me be, that strong for you
It took longer than it had to take
And I don't know why
I need a little time to break
So
I won't let life pass me by
Say everything we have to say
There's no holding back
You'll always have a part of me
And
I hope you can live with that
I gotta say baby you got a way
Of keeping me awake at night
I can't sleep a wink I lie
there and think
I'm lucky that you're in my life
That love of yours
Just knocks me off my feet
I'm yours for sure
'Cause
what you got just gets to me
Walk away
And hope my feet don't fail me
Walk away
As far as they will take me
Long before
you have a chance
To look into these eyes
I'll be gone and you won't see me cry
If I walk away
