the side you see is not the one they do
I don’t expect you to understand
please don’t try to change my mind
I’m afraid what I might do
to try to stay with you
don’t even say that you still love me
forget you ever knew my name
these things I know would only hurt you
they would tear you up inside
you know I’ve never lied
to you baby
don’t make me now…
this face you see was not always mine
you’re holdin’ someone else’s hand
(what you don’t know can’t hurt you)
you don’t have to be so kind
these things inside my head are better left unsaid
(but I was always one for words)
don’t even say that you still love me
forget you ever felt a thing
these things I know would only hurt you
they would tear you up inside
you know I’ve never lied
to you baby
don’t make me now…
another year has come and gone again
you’re back inside your world of black and white
(with all the things that won’t desert you)
I came to you amidst the darkness
I thought that maybe you, might still want me
(but no one ever does)
and so I’ll pray that you still love me
and then I’ll wish that you’ll forget
these things I know, they broke your heart tonight
I guess they always do
I should’ve known better than to
love you baby
I’m sorry love
