Lyrics
The stars came out today,
I saw them in the morning sky
Dreamt of you again
What sort of fool am I?
Walked the crispy streets
Watched my breath make cloudy shapes
Know what I must do
Battle on for my own sake
Fighting blind
(Chorus)
It's a nasty game
Rules are few and can't be seen
You were on my mind
Not the one, but my kind
If I'm not in love
How come I can feel love die?
Only goes to prove
I can love if I try, but will I try?
(Chorus)
Mid8thing:
And I was so naïve, thinking
You were meant for me
You thought it so funny
Is it still funny?
(Chorus)
So what's there left to do?
Hide behind a mask of smiles?
But how can I portray
Contentment when my eyes give me away
I'll take my chance
To be with you is to be apart
But how can I keep smiling
When you're shattering my aching heart
Over time?
Chorus:
How can you call my name
And not hear my heart beating?
So easy to see I'm on dangerous ground
Open your eyes and hear
I'll wait a thousand years
So easy to see I'm on dangerous ground
