If only you'd never speak to me 
The way that you do 
If only you'd never speak like that 
It's like listening to 
A breaking heart 
A falling sky 

Fire go out and friendship die 
I wish you felt the way that I still do 
If only you'd never look at me 
The way that you do 
If only you'd never look like that 
When I look at you 
I see face like stone 
Eyes of ice 

Mouth so sweetly telling lies 
I wish you felt the way that I still do 
The way that I still do 
But you don't 
You don't feel anymore 
You don't care anymore 
It's all gone 

If only you'd never pull from me 
The way that you do 
If only you'd never pull like that 
When I'm with you 

I feel hopeless hands helplessly 
Pulling you back close to me 
I wish you felt the way that I still do 
The way that I still do 

If only you'd ever speak to me 
The way you once did 
Look at me the way you once did 
Pull to me the way you once did 

But you don't 
You don't feel anymore 
You don't care anymore 
It's all gone 
It's all gone

The Cure

The Cure are an English rock band formed in Crawley, West Sussex in 1976. The band has experienced several line-up changes, with frontman, vocalist, guitarist and principal songwriter Robert Smith being the only constant member. The Cure first began releasing music in the late 1970s with its debut album Three Imaginary Boys (1979); this, along with several early singles, placed the band as part of the post-punk and New Wave movements that had sprung up in the wake of the punk rock revolution in the United Kingdom. During the early 1980s, the band's increasingly dark and tormented music helped form the gothic rock genre. more »
