Why can’t you just say what you mean? That you’ll never be here for me.
Don’t you see? That is what I’ve always said to you in the things that I do.
You just couldn’t hear.
But why did you stay with me then? Were you only playing with me?
In a way, ’cause that’s the only way I know to play. It’s not really a game.
It’s how I live my life.
Every breath that I take is only for you
Every beat of my heart only for you
Every thought that I have finds its way home to you
That’s how we live our lives for love
If I say yes when I mean no, promise to stay but then I go
And all along you really know that you must let me go
Come back, my heart, come back, come back to me
Come back to me
Why can’t you just say what you mean? That you’ll never be here for me.
Don’t you see? That is what I’ve always said to you in the things that I do.
You just couldn’t hear.
But why did you stay with me then? Were you only playing with me?
In a way, ’cause that’s the only way I know to play. It’s not really a game.
It’s how I live my life.
Every breath that I take is only for you
Every beat of my heart only for you
Every thought that I have finds its way home to you
That’s how we live our lives for love
