All that time I was searching with nowhere to run to

It started me thinking
wondering what I could make of my life

And who'd be waiting.
Asking all kinds of questions to myself

but never finding the answers.
Crying at the top of my voice
and no one listening.
All this time I still remember everything you said

There's so much you promised
how could I ever forget?

Listen: you know I love you but I just can't take this

You know I love you but I'm playing for: keeps

Although I need you I'm not gonna make this

You know I want you but I'm in too deep.

So listen
listen to me
oh
you must believe me:
I can feel your eyes go through me but I don't know why.
I know you're going but I can't believe

It's the way that you're leaving

It's like we never knew each other at all
it may be my fault.
I gave you too many reasons being alone when I didn't want to.
I thought you'd always be there
I almost believed you.
All this time I still remember everything you said

There's so much you promised
how could I ever forget?

Listen: you know I love you but I just can't take this
. . .
So listen
listen to me: I can feel your eyes go through me.

It seems I've spent too long only thinking about myself

And now I want to spend my life just caring 'bout somebody else.
Listen: you know I love you but I just can't take this
. . .
You know I love yo but I just can't take this
. . .
