I knew you wanted to tell me |
|
In your voice there was something wrong |
|
But if you would turn your face away from me |
|
You cannot tell me you're so strong |
|
Just let me ask of you one small thing |
|
As we have shared so many tears |
|
With fervor our dreams we planned a whole life long |
|
Now are scattered on the wind... |
|
In the terms of endearment |
|
In the terms of the life that you love |
|
In the terms of the years that pass you by |
|
In the terms of the reasons why |
|
Through the years I've grown to love you |
|
Though your commitment to most would offend |
|
But I stuck by you holding on with my foolish pride |
|
Waiting for you to give in... |
|
You never really tried or so it seems |
|
I've had more than myself to blame |
|
I've had enough of trying everything |
|
And this time it is the end... |
|
In the terms of endearment |
|
In the terms of the life that you love |
|
In the terms of the years that pass you by |
|
In the terms of the reasons why |
|
There's no more coming back this way |
|
The path is overgrown and strewn with thorns |
|
They've torn the life-blood from your naked eyes |
|
Cast aside to be forlorn... |
|
In the terms of endearment |
|
In the terms of the life that you love |
|
In the terms of the years that pass you by |
|
In the terms of the reasons why |
|
In the terms of endearment |
|
In the terms of the life that you love |
|
In the terms of the years that pass you by |
|
In the terms of the reasons why |
|
Funny, how it seems that all I've tried to do |
|
Seemed to make no difference to you at all... |
