I wish I could figure a way around this
She says...like a sad song
I don't understand the way that I feel
I am terrified of being wrong
Well, I am not happy I am not crazy
Are you listening, do you hear...
Everything happens for a reason...stay clear

I only say what you want to hear...
When there is a conflict...I stay clear
When he was loving, I was in tears...he knows my fears
When love changes in the flash of an eye
It leaves people burnin' by the side of the road
You stand there you got nothing to hold
For the first time you are alone, for the first time you are alone
It wasn't that I didn't love you, but I just couldn't make you see
That as hard as I tried to make it all better...
It was not better for me...the love that I gave you was...
All around you...there was nothing left for me
I hate to say it...but I saw it coming...
My feelings were changing...

I only say what you want to hear...
When there is a conflict...I stay clear
When he was loving, I was in tears...he knows my fears
When love changes in the flash of an eye
It leaves people burnin' by the side of the road
You stand there you got nothing to hold
For the first time you are alone, for the first time you are alone
That don't mend the sorrow or reinvent the pleasure...
Mend the sorrow, reinvent the pleasure...oh no...
