if I said I would like to stay
here beside you
would you turn your eyes away
or would you smile?
I who have been lonely
for too long need a friend
to hear my song
it is a cross I ahve to bear
that I do not trust you
I know it is not fair
to dwell on the past
still you talk about regret
it is hard for me to take you
to my heart
I will not listen to lies
I will not have you bring me down
listen to my cries for another solution
I will not have you tell me lies
we planned for future paths
we never did follow
we went our separate ways
into the night
still you talk about your regret
it is hard for me to take you
to my heart
here beside you
would you turn your eyes away
or would you smile?
I who have been lonely
for too long need a friend
to hear my song
it is a cross I ahve to bear
that I do not trust you
I know it is not fair
to dwell on the past
still you talk about regret
it is hard for me to take you
to my heart
I will not listen to lies
I will not have you bring me down
listen to my cries for another solution
I will not have you tell me lies
we planned for future paths
we never did follow
we went our separate ways
into the night
still you talk about your regret
it is hard for me to take you
to my heart
