I'm sorry that I couldn't love you back
When you asked and no one's around
And, in between the waves of the years and years
You're screaming out in pain
I know that it's wrong but I'll string you along
Then cry out and run for the hills
If you weren't so lost on a merry go round
You'd know there's nothing fear
Hey now, turn me around then I'll go
I'll be gone
Just say it now, turn me around then I'll go
I'll be gone
I know that it's hard to be back at the start
When the writing's marked clear on the wall
Like a still from a film that just pulls you in
To where it ends and you begin
Hey now, turn me around then I'll go
I'll be gone
Just say it now, turn me around then I'll go
I'll be gone
I'll pretend to love you back
Until the end, it comes, I will
I'll pretend to love you back
Until the end, it comes, I will
When you asked and no one's around
And, in between the waves of the years and years
You're screaming out in pain
I know that it's wrong but I'll string you along
Then cry out and run for the hills
If you weren't so lost on a merry go round
You'd know there's nothing fear
Hey now, turn me around then I'll go
I'll be gone
Just say it now, turn me around then I'll go
I'll be gone
I know that it's hard to be back at the start
When the writing's marked clear on the wall
Like a still from a film that just pulls you in
To where it ends and you begin
Hey now, turn me around then I'll go
I'll be gone
Just say it now, turn me around then I'll go
I'll be gone
I'll pretend to love you back
Until the end, it comes, I will
I'll pretend to love you back
Until the end, it comes, I will
