You see me as the girl next-door
Like you know so many, many more
Just a fish that swims in your direction
And could bring love and affection
But I can't play the game of love with you
I know it will only hurt me
I feel the tears in my eyes
Because we have to say goodbye
Looking in the face of love
I'll never touch it
It would be self-deceit
To think you would stay with me
You think you mean the same to me
But I am afraid and too shy to let you see
To me you're really someone special
I found the needle in the hay stack
I feel love is back
But I can't play the game of love with you
I know it will only hurt me
I feel the tears in my eyes
Because we have to say goodbye
Looking in the face of love
I'll never touch it
It would be self-deceit
To think you would never leave
Blisters on my soul
Are they my path, or are they my goal
Cause everytime I feel love
Faithrudely breaks it up
Will it ever stop?
But I can't play the game of love with you
I know it will only hurt me
I feel the tears in my eyes
Because we have to say goodbye
Looking in the face of love
I'll never touch it
It would be self-deceit
To think you would never leave
Like you know so many, many more
Just a fish that swims in your direction
And could bring love and affection
But I can't play the game of love with you
I know it will only hurt me
I feel the tears in my eyes
Because we have to say goodbye
Looking in the face of love
I'll never touch it
It would be self-deceit
To think you would stay with me
You think you mean the same to me
But I am afraid and too shy to let you see
To me you're really someone special
I found the needle in the hay stack
I feel love is back
But I can't play the game of love with you
I know it will only hurt me
I feel the tears in my eyes
Because we have to say goodbye
Looking in the face of love
I'll never touch it
It would be self-deceit
To think you would never leave
Blisters on my soul
Are they my path, or are they my goal
