You say it's better to behave
Just like I never met you
Why is it only I can cry
And you can say goodbye in a minute
Don't you remember I was your friend
And you can just erase all those days
And those tender reflections we bear
We promised not to fall in love
But it was there and soon I was in it
Already I was more than your friend
It's harder for me
No words or expressions
Can make you hungry for me
I've never seen you on your knees
Like I'm beggin' you
Don't give up, give up on each other
Back where we started
No love to hold us down
I'll never give another anymore than I gave to you
Will never come around
Always and always
You told me love was ever and ever
Together the dream will come true
If we turn back
If you turn back to me
You won't be sorry if you stay
I'll stake my life upon it
Little flame inside us can be fed
Take our precious love to the limit
It's the one that you need and it's your friend
It's harder for me
No words or expressions
Anything that makes you worry
I've never seen you on your knees
And I'm in a hurry
How is it you can break my heart
But you can't be sorry
Push away whoever you please
But I'm begging you
Don't give up, give up on each other
Back where we started
No love to hold us down
I'll never give another
Anymore than I gave to you
Will never come around, oh
Don't give up, give up on each other
We can't lose tomorrow
Better treasure what we've got
I'll never give another anymore than I gave to you
Just like I never met you
Why is it only I can cry
And you can say goodbye in a minute
Don't you remember I was your friend
And you can just erase all those days
And those tender reflections we bear
We promised not to fall in love
But it was there and soon I was in it
Already I was more than your friend
It's harder for me
No words or expressions
Can make you hungry for me
I've never seen you on your knees
Like I'm beggin' you
Don't give up, give up on each other
Back where we started
No love to hold us down
I'll never give another anymore than I gave to you
Will never come around
Always and always
You told me love was ever and ever
Together the dream will come true
If we turn back
If you turn back to me
You won't be sorry if you stay
I'll stake my life upon it
Little flame inside us can be fed
Take our precious love to the limit
It's the one that you need and it's your friend
It's harder for me
No words or expressions
Anything that makes you worry
I've never seen you on your knees
And I'm in a hurry
How is it you can break my heart
But you can't be sorry
Push away whoever you please
But I'm begging you
Don't give up, give up on each other
Back where we started
No love to hold us down
I'll never give another
Anymore than I gave to you
Will never come around, oh
Don't give up, give up on each other
We can't lose tomorrow
Better treasure what we've got
I'll never give another anymore than I gave to you
