It's like a playground Sinking in, we're a couple of kids Exchanging grins, your attention seems to be on me Or at least that's what I'm imagining
You got me chasing a tail, got me singing your tune And I'm over the moon, I'm smiling on the inside Acting like a fool
I'm starting to wise up I can't pretend that what you're giving me, giving me is enough
I have been waiting, been waiting Cause you know how I feel about you This is a game that you're playing and I'm not going to lose I have been trying, been trying For more than a one way thing But after all this time you're still not mine and it's finally sinking in Sinking in
I gave it my best shot, for the right man I got the wrong idea cause I'm not really part of your plan So what am I still doing here?
It's not like a playground, we're not a couple of kids All of this is supposed to bring me happiness Well that's not what this is
I'm starting to wake up I can't pretend that what you're giving me, giving me is enough
I have been waiting, been waiting Cause you know how I feel about you This is a game that you're playing and I'm not going to lose I have been trying, been trying For more than a one way thing But after all this time you're still not mine and it's finally sinking in Sinking in
The only way to win, is not to play So I'll just slip away I bet you don't even notice anyway
I have been waiting, been waiting Cause you know how I feel about you This is a game that you're playing and I'm not going to lose I have been trying, been trying For more than a one way thing But after all this time you're still not mine and it's finally sinking in Sinking in
Its not every day you wake up And admit who you really are Most days its easier to shut yourself up And never look that far
This is me, I'm covered What I hid behind the door And everything she says angers I'm apologizing for
[Chorus:] Do you see her when you see me? Understand her insecurities? And accept the part she plays in me? Could you love her....like you love me?
Like you love me Ohh, like you love me Woahhh....
Id rather be who you think I am See myself through your eyes Cos the mirror you use cant be too harsh And I want it to tell me lies
So today I'll be brave and I'll face myself Show you who I really am Cos wherever I go she follows me can you reach out for her hand?
[Chorus:] Do you see her when you see me? Understand her insecurities? Ohh, And accept the part she plays in me? Could you love her....like you love me?
I'm not perfect but I try to be Oh, could you really have the hold in me Sometimes what you get isn't what you see Could you believe in her, like you believe in me?
Ohhh.....hey hey, yeh yeh...ohh woah..
Mmm...do you love her, woah...
Do you see her when you see me? Understand her insecurities Ohh, And accept the part she plays in me? Could you love her...woah
Do you see her when you see me Understand her insecurities Ohh, and accept the part she plays in me Could you love her.........like you love me?
Like you love me Ohh...like you love me Woah, like you....love me....
When I feel every thing in my life's a mess And I can't lift my head up above the rest When all I touch I can't hold on to Then I cover my eyes and try to picture you
Cause your belief in me's so strong I won't give in I will carry on Cause I know you're the one
When the storm has broken you'll be waiting When the big wave crashes you'll be swimming When the war is over you'll be waving the flag I know you'll be the last man standing with me
Yeah yeah
When I know in my heart I have my good and bad days And I wish I could hide that side of me away But you're so blind - I can do no wrong And I try to explain where the pains come from
And I see you as my shining star To live up to and be where you are If I can reach that far
When the storm has broken you'll be waiting When the big wave crashes you'll be swimming When the war is over you'll be waving the flag I know you'll be the last man standing with me
Never thought I'd find some one to be here with me I have so much trust in you you're all that I see Do you know the difference you made to who I am I couldn't find a better man You showed me how to understand
When the storm has broken you'll be waiting When the big wave crashes you'll be swimming When the war is over you'll be waving the flag I know you'll be the last man standing with me
Forget me not, I ask of you Wherever your life takes you to And if we never meet again Think of me every now and then
We had just one day to recall Now all I want is something more Than just a fading memory Left wondering what could have been.
Isn't it a shame, that when timing's all wrong You're doing what you never meant to, There's always something that prevents you. Well I believe in fate, it had to happen this way But it always leaves me wondering whether... In another life we'd be together. We should feel lucky we can say... we've always got yesterday
And as I leave it all behind You're still emblazoned in my mind And for that very special day Nobody loved me in that way
Forget me not, I ask of you Wherever your life takes you to And if we never meet again Think of me every now and then
I feel like I'm dragging you down a one way street I don't know which ways up All I ask of you is to stay on your feet That should be enough If we stand around it could pass us by We could give up now, and never even try
[Chorus] To breathe in life and breathe out Like tomorrow is today Breathe in life and breathe out It's not so long to wait Breathe in life and breathe out Wipe the dust from your sweet smile An breathe in life
I just want something real I can hold onto I believe its near Life's too short to know the truth Maybe it's already hear We could throw ourselves into the fire We could give up now and never even try
[Chorus] To breathe in life and breathe out Like tommorrow is today Breathe in life and breathe out It's not so long to wait Breathe in life and breathe out Wipe the dust from your sweet smile And breathe in life.
[Bridge] We're chasing something we've dreamed of (is not always out of reach) It's never far away from us ('cause I believe that)
[Chorus] To breathe in life and breathe out Like tomorrow is today Breathe in life and breathe out It's not so long to wait Breathe in life and breathe out Wipe the dust from your sweet smile An breathe in life Breathe in life and breathe out Ooh, ooh, no, yeah, yeah yeah Breathe in life and breathe out And it's not so long to wait Breathe in life and breathe out Wipe the dust from your sweet smile An breathe in life Ooh, ohh, no, oh, ooh ohh And breathe in life Ooh, oh And breathe in life.
Without you, I have room to breathe And if I'm weak then you can't see my insecurities Without you, I can do what I choose Cause when you got no one to love you got nothing to lose
Will there come a time when my head finds it easier to not think about this And I would do any thing to stop the weight of my heart getting heavier My only conclusion is
That nothing compares to you No matter where I look No matter what I do Cause that garden of Eden you took me to Is now over grown And the love I've known is gone without you
Is gone without you
Without you, I can kid myself That my idea of perfect love is not a fairytale Without you, I don't need to explain There's no one to answer to and I got no one to blame
I can do my thing, cause who cares what tomorrow brings When you got nothing to miss And every time I hide in the arms of another I realise It still comes to this
That nothing compares to you No matter where I look No matter what I do Cause that garden of Eden you took me to Is now over grown And the love iv known Is gone without you
What is the flower that never blooms What's the night sky without its moon If I'm the music you're the tune Don't hear a sound here without you
Cause nothing compares to you No matter where I look No matter what I do Cause that garden of Eden you took me to Is now over grown
Cause nothing compares to you No matter where I look No matter what I do Cause that garden of Eden you took me to Is now over grown And the love I've known Is gone without you
Is gone without you Is gone without you The love I've known is gone without you
Just like I predicted we're at the point of no return We can go backwards and no corners have been turned I can't control it if I sink or if I swim 'Cause I chose the water that I'm in And it makes no difference who is right or wrong I deserve much more than this 'Cause there's only one thing I want If it's not what you're made of You're not what I'm looking for You were willing but unable to give me anymore There's no way You're changing Cause some things will just never be mine You're not in love this timebut it's alrightI hear you talking but your words don't mean a thing I doubt you ever put your heart into anything It's not much to ask for to get back what I put in But I chose the waters that I'm in And it makes no difference who is right or wrong I deserve much more than this 'Cause there's only one thing I want If it's not what you're made of You're not what I'm looking for You were willing, but unable to give me anymore There's no way You're changing Cause some things will just never be mine You're not in love this timebut it's alright What's your definition of the one What do you really want him to become No matter what I sacrifice it's still never enough Just like I predicted I will sink before I swim 'Cause these are the waters that I'm in If it's not what you're made of You're not what I'm looking for You where willing, but unable to give me anymore There's no way You're changing 'Cause some things will just never be mine You're not in love this time Oh, if it's not what you're made of You're not what I'm looking for You where willing, but unable to give me anymore There's no way You're changing 'Cause some things will just never be mine You're not in love this time You're not in love this time You're not in love this time -
I can see you're hurting, You wear it like a coat of amour, You closed your eyes and chose your battleground, And there's no way through you Cause I'm still over here and you're still over there.
You're pulling me to you, where you wanna be...
[Chorus:] You're twisting the chain And I'm right there with you, I can match your pain, You're twisting the chain Do I run back to you or run away again?
You think it doesn't matter, You're gonna hurt yourself before I do, You're aiming at me, I'll throw it back to you And I feel I'm losing Cause I'm still over here and you're still over there.
[Repeat Bridge and Chorus]
What ever you think, what ever you say... Nothing you do could ever push me away [x2]
I'm trying hard to break down the walls You never let me get to the core You know I'm not the enemy So take these chains away from me...
Armed with a arrow you're pointing it straight at my heart, Watching me break as I try to find my way out of the dark, They say each moment comes to an end So my pain is its consequence, It's a battle and I have no defence.
Sure as you said that you loved me you turned me away, Suddenly everything changed right in front of my face, They say sometimes loves just unfair But why's it always at my expense? I've no answers and I have no defence.
I guess I'll never understand How love can come and go, Looking through the broken glass now I know, But even though my bitter doubt lets my lonliness show, I'll get over you, over you in the end.
I wish that I had the courage to leave you behind, Cause you are the one that I'll love for the rest of my life, They say someday I'll trust again But it makes no difference, Cause it's a battle and I have no defence.
My intuition tells me, that this relationship's not working But we, pretend we're better off not knowing Only, to realise we can't go on.
Tried to tell you, but you didn't wanna listen to me, Say things we don't wanna admit to, But it's no good, cause it's time to walk away.
I can't explain my reasons anymore, The talking is over and now I'm out the door...
[Chorus] And if I don't look back Then I won't know how much I hurt you... I really hurt you, And if I don't look back It doesn't mean I didn't love you... I didn't love you.
Please don't ask me, Cause I can't take the way you're looking at me Everytime we touch it makes me feel so guilty, And I can't do this anymore.
I can't explain, I've said it all before And I won't be persuaded, I'm half way out the door...
[Chorus] And if I don't look back Then I won't know how much I hurt you... I really hurt you, And if I don't look back It doesn't mean I didn't love you... I didn't love you.
It doesn't mean I didn't love you...
I can't explain, my reasons anymore It's over, your heart's out of my hands...
[Chorus] And if I don't look back Then I won't know how much I hurt you... I really hurt you, And if I don't look back It doesn't mean I didn't love you... I didn't love you.
