The beauty that you gave
has turned upon itself
and all the things you said
evaporated
evaporated ...
was i blind
deaf and dumb
to the words slipped from yur tongue?
honestly ... honestly ... honestly
alone in my bed
the things that you said
go round in my head ... still
it seems to be true
that nothinand' i do
can influence you ...
i tried and tried again
(donand't you know i tried and tried again
to make you listen to me
but everything i said it always seemed to go right through you)
to make you notice me
(i turned myself into a person that i didnand't like
but please believe me when i say i know it wasnand't right)
but talking to myself
(i never thought that things would
get to be so complicated
i never thought that you and me would end up o frustrated)
wonand't catch you attention i see ...
(youand'd think that something had to come from all those good intentions
but in the end i needed something more than intervention)
was i mad?
was i ... mad?
foolish me
foolish ... me
to succumb so easily
to suc...cumb
easi...ly
so easily
so easily
honestly... honestly... honestly...
(alone in my bed
the things that you said
go round in my head ... still
it seems to be true
that nothinand' i do
can influence you... still)
fools like me get so easily taken
and fools like me can be so mistaken
honestly... honestly... honestly
the promise that you gave
(donand't you know the promise that you
gave just turned itand's back upon me
i stopped believing but you couldnand't take the whole thing from me)
has turned itand's back
(i never thought iand'd have to pay the price to set you free)
and all you represented
was just my projection you see...
(you know i never thought iand'd ever
live a day without you
and thatand's the reason why
it makes me sad to think about you
and you know i never thought
iand'd make it if you wasnand't there
and now iand'm tryinand' to eject myself
from this despair)
people come
people go...
never say i andquot;told you soandquot;
honestly
everything i know you said
goinand' round inside my head
never thought iand'd see the day
always got a price to pay
nothinand' that i ever do
ever seems to get to you
