Lyrics:
you back
If only you could see me, now
Here I am, stranger to a smile
Trying to fight the tears, missing by a mile
I'm not the one who laughed
the vase that set by their bed
The roses in the paper on the wall
There's a story to tell if roses could talk
She never told him
She never let him see
And that's the only reason I need
To get by
You still matter to me
Yes, you do
If I could have just one wish
I'd stand you in my place
Then you'd know
People say that you're no good,
But I wouldn't cut you loose, baby, if I could.
Well, I seem to stay down on the ground,
Baby, I'm too far gone
in her eiderdown
And she dreams of crystal streams
Of days gone by when we would lean
Laughing fit to burst upon each other
Oh if only I could nestle
you want to be together we could be one
One and one, I've always heard adds up to two
But one and one is only one when that one is me and you
If you
you could never grow no stronger
If I lived to be a hundred years old
Oh it's cryin' time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in
by me
Nobody knows
Yeah, nobody knows
The way it's gonna be
If you're leaving, will you take me with you?
I'm tired of talking on my phone
I hurt myself today to see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill
more sense
Out of the back end of a mule
Screw you
Oh, you bloody young fools
I could get more sense
Out of the back end of a mule
So you see
"Oh, honey, won't you stop treatin' me that way?"
If you could only see
What love has made of me
Then I'd no longer be in your mind
and touch you as if to heal (heal)
Layer by layer, inch by inch, until your true love is revealed
Oh, I see, oh, this is what you wanted, baby
One kiss
Nice to meet you, where you been?
I could show you incredible things
Magic, madness, heaven, sin
Saw you there and I thought
"Oh, my God, look
here an angry young woman
Taking all the pain to heart
I hear you saying you want to see changes
But you don't know how to start
Love will find
world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into
New Year's Eve
They made it far too easy to believe
That true romance can't be achieved these days
And even if somehow they could have
Shown you
If you don't mind I could sit and stare all night
Sit here waiting for you to hold me tight
It's sad but I know it's true
You see I know you well
the world [if I could change the world]
If I had you [by my side]
I could change the world [if I could change the world]
If I had you (by my side, yeah)
The place I love is a million miles away,
Its too far for the eye to see
Still its me at least, and you can't come there
No one is allowed at all
do I only make a standing start
And then, darlin, you're gone, yes, you're gone again
Before these words can ever leave my heart
If my heart could
Are the stars out tonight?
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
'Cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I can't see
said if I helped her thru' she could help me too, but I could see that she wholly blind.
But from her pale face and her pale skin, a moonlight shined.
Brian Holland-Lamont Dozier-Edward Holland, Jr.
I just want to be happy
To love and be loved by you
But the only time I'm happy
Is when I
that I could
If only time, could just turn back
'Cause I got three little words that I've always been dying to tell you
But I see you
With him slow
