it was you who walked into my life
you were the one
you hear my cries of loneliness
through my cool cautious eyes
can't you see me reaching out for you
can't you feel me there
won't you please believe me
i could never touch you for the fear
that i might never let you go

it was you with the courage and the commitment
to start your new life
you make me believe in mine
but can't you see the confusion
through my troubled smile
i'm torn between losing me
losing me and gaining you

maybe i've been distant
maybe i've been cold
but i've done it for my own existence
and i do believe i do believe it's getting old

i might never say that i love you
i might never say i care
but i will tell you now
