Who do you think you are
To come into my life
And make me feel this way?
It cuts me like a knife.
What can I do but try
To put it from my mind?
It’s tearing me apart.
What do I hope to find?
Where can these feelings lead
Except to break my heart?
Al ready I feel pain
Each moment we’re apart.
When is it going to end,
This feeling deep inside?
Although I’ve tried so hard,
It’s something I can’t hide.
Why do we kid ourselves?
Each time I hold your hand
I know you feel the same.
I just don’t understand.
How long can I go on
Pretending it’s not true,
When every single night
My thoughts come back to you?
