I know I ask for nothing
|
And that¡¯s what I got from you tonight
|
I guess I thought you¡¯d changed
|
Leaving becomes too easy
|
Easy by morning light
|
I still cannot explain
|
|
Is it enough to ask and not receive
|
Just one more kiss before you turn and leave
|
When love is over
|
Over it should be
|
But something still burns in me
|
|
A hundred solid reasons
|
The answers come in waves
|
But I'm all for calmer seas
|
You¡¯re only lost in the shuffle
|
But in your usual way
|
It¡¯s you who always comes to me
|
|
I¡¯ve burned up pages
|
Hidden yesterdays
|
Here¡¯s one more glance before I turn away
|
When love is over
|
Over it should stay
|
But something won¡¯t go away
|
|
Hardly a moment passes
|
Hardly a single day goes by
|
I¡¯m not remembering
|
Just to surrender slowly
|
Into a stranger¡¯s arms
|
But you stand watching in the wings
|
|
These must be days we¡¯ve seen through tear-filled eyes
|
It all makes painful sense when I realize
|
When love is over
|
Something has to die
|
Cause you can say goodbye
|
