All that time I was searching
Nowhere to run to
It started me thinking
Wondering what I could make of my life
And who’d be waiting
Asking all kinds of questions
To myself
But never finding the answers
Crying at the top of my voice,
And no one listening
All this time
I still remember everything you said
There’s so much you promised
How could I ever forget.

Listen, you know I love you
But I just can’t take this
You know I love you, but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not going to make this
You know I want to, but I’m in too deep.

So listen, listen to me
Ooh, you must believe me
I can feel your eyes go thru me
But I don’t know why.

Ooh I know you’re going, but I can’t believe
It’s the way that you’re leaving
It’s like we never knew each other at all
It may be my fault
I gave you too many reasons
Being alone
When I didn’t want to.

I thought you’d always be there
I almost believed you
All this time
I still remember everything you said
Oh there’s so much you promised
How could I ever forget.

Listen, you know I love you
But I just can’t take this
You know I love you, but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I’m in too deep.

So listen, listen to me
I can feel your eyes go thru me.

It seems I’ve spent too long
Only thinking about myself, oh
Now I want to spend my life
Just caring about somebody else.

Listen, you know I love you
But I just can’t take this
You know I love you, but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I’m in too deep.

You know I love you, but I just can’t take this
You know I love you, but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I’m in too deep.
