|
How do I save you from a fate so sweet |
|
As being torn to pieces by a loving hand |
|
How do I save you from a voice so soft |
|
As that which acquiesces to your each demand |
|
How do I look upon the eyes I love |
|
And send them down this path, I know it isn't right |
|
How do I make you realize, my love, |
|
That there is more to fear than strangers in the night |
|
Chorus: |
|
How do I save you |
|
How do I set you free |
|
Behind the curtain waits a darker world |
|
If I can't make you leave |
|
How can I save you from me |
|
I think you've had enough experience |
|
To differentiate between a heart of gold |
|
And what you cradle in your gentle arms |
|
Can you not recognize a soul already sold |
|
How do I save you from the things I've been |
|
I can't deny the past, it's written on my face |
|
How do I save you from the mess you're in |
|
When I can't make you leave this torturous embrace |
|
Chorus |
