Standing there before you Defences thrown aside I thought I heard you laughing But when I asked you said you'd cried I wanted to believe you Yes I wanted to feel strong But looking at my picture I realised I must be wrong Sounds so weak It sounds so fey It doesn't sound Like what I meant to say I speak to you With a borrowed tongue Shall I stop right now Or blindly carry on? Choose one But I'm not everyone I only have one viewpoint Don't talk to me of right or wrong And didn't I often tell you Oh, didn't I often say That something in your manner That really takes my breath away? It's not weak To show I care I know of those Who wouldn't even bear The fact remains I feel a need Is it love Or is it simply greed? It's not weak To show I care I know of those Who wouldn't even bear The fact remains I feel a need Is it love Or is it simply greed? You choose what you believe in As far as I'm concerned But one thing I can tell you Is innocence cannot be learned I wish you'd stop me talking Oh I wish you'd shut my mouth Well the reason why I tell you Is I think that you could help me out And if you do then there's no doubt That all my problems won't just fly away
