There's been a thousand times

Thousand times I've wondered

Is it a hand of fate

That pushes me out into the cold

And the ex-friends say

That I've hidden my feelings too deep

Truth is that I've got nothing to hide anymore

I feel myself weary and old



I've had more than my share of pain

Love's not made for my kind

My heart's turning to stone

Love's not made for my kind

Better to leave me alone



I've been on the edges of unknown

I've roamed the spaces wild and free

I've always been on my own

I can't change my ways can't you see

And now the dark is rising

And my back's to the door

I think it's time to give in

My legs won't carry me no more



I've had more than my share of pain

I wonder if I am still sane

Love's not made for my kind

My heart's turning to stone

Love's not made for my kind

Better to leave me alone
