Ain't funny how time Steals the feeling from a love affair And there's no place to lay the blame 'cos in any case, oh, no one cares Helplessly we just watched it fade away Neither will admit it Are we both aching to say. We, you, I miss the days when we

I never, never, never Want to be in love with anyone but you Then I love you For whatever you do For whatever you do Then I hate you I'd like to run away from you But if I were to leave you I would die

To have lovin' from my baby's eyes, oh lovin' from my baby's eyes See the lovin' in my baby's eyes, lovin' from my baby's eyes Love you baby now you know I'd do, anything in the world for you Look here baby now you know I can, be the one to be your man

And why can't you see its tearing away what I used to be Oh, so far from home being shallow and alone I'm a shadow of a soul Anywhere I go, anything I try Anyone I love is compromised Everyone I see, staring on back at me Why can't you let me be I don't

Just call on me and I'll send it along With love, from me to you If there's anything that you want If there's anything I can do Da da da, da da dumb dumb da I've got arms that long to hold you And keep you by my side I've got lips that long to kiss you

Who wants to sleep in the city that never wakes up? But you don't know what you're runnin' from You can't kid us And you couldn't trick anyone Houdini, love you don't know what you're runnin' away from Blinded by nostalgia Old yellow bricks Love's a risk
