Lyrics
If you'd see me now, you'd see me looking at the stars
It's your face I see there, up in the emptiness
How could I have ever thought there'd ever come a time
That you would leave and I'd be down in this loneliness
Why do lovers fight?
Does it matter in the night?
Would you come back home 'cause I love you ?
More than you realize
Did it all get started when I came home late last night?
Or was it when I called you from the station?
All I really needed was some time to clear my mind
Some time to find myself and my direction
(CHORUS)
You keep on askin' me to tell you the things
that you really don't wanna know
And when I do I feel a blanket of cold
But you never let your feelings show
Tell me, tell me, will you ever have time to see
If you can't love anyone but yourself
Then you'll never put the chains on me
We tear each others hearts out when our egos are at stake
Or could it be that cruelty's in fashion?
It would be so easy just to go our separate ways
But why miss all the love and all the passion?
(CHORUS)
