I can tell by the way
When I’m holding you tight
Something is wrong
No it’s never been right
I can see by the way
That you stare in my eyes
Tempted and there’s nothing inside
What if I told you
That I’ve been thinking
I’ve been dreaming ’bout you
And all the things I always thought that we’d do
But it was never enough
[Chorus]
I can’t figure out
Why you don’t love me now
So why’d you tear me down
I’m faceless in the crowd
So tell me is this real
‘Cause I can’t help but feel
I’m heading for heart-ache
Can I make you feel
Like you’ve never been kissed
Like a picture you paint
Will I ever be missed
Would you stay if I told you my love wouldn’t change
If your hair turns grey
If you gain a little weight
What if I told you
That I’ve been thinking
I’ve been dreaming ’bout you
And all the things I always thought that we’d do
But it was never enough
[Chorus]
I’m heading for heart-ache
I’m not giving you up
I’m not giving you up
(I’m heading for heart-ache)
[Chorus]
