In your voice there was something wrong
 But if you would turn your face away from me
 You cannot tell me you're so strong....
 Just let me ask of you one small thing
 As we have shared so many tears
 With forever our dreams we planned a whole life long
 Now are scattered on the wind....

 Chorus:
 In the terms of endearment
 In the terms of the life that you love
 In the terms of the years that pass you by
 In the terms of the reasons why

 Through the years I've grown to love you
 Through your commitment to most would offend
 But I stuck by you holding on with my foolish pride
 waiting for you to give in....
 You never really tried or so it seems
 I've had more than myself to blame
 I've had enough of trying everything
 And this time it is the end....

 (Chorus)

 There's no more coming back this way
 The path is overgrown and strewn with thorns
 They've torn the life blood from your naked eyes
 Cast aside to be forlorn....

 (Chorus)
 Funny, how it seems that all I've tried to do
 seemed to make no difference to you at all
