Games, changes and fears When will they go from here? When will they stop? I believe that fate has brought us here And we should be together babe, but we're not I play it off but I'm dreaming of you I'll keep my cool but I'm fading I try to say good-bye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near Good-bye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near I may appear to be free but I'm just a prisoner of your love I may seem all right and smile when you leave But my smiles are just a front, just a front! (hey) I play it off but I'm dreaming of you I'll keep my cool but I'm fading I try to say good-bye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near Good-bye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near Here is my confession May I be your possession Boy I need your touch Your love kisses and such With all my might I try but this I can't deny, deny I play it off but I'm dreaming of you (But I'm dreaming of you babe) I'll keep my cool but I'm fading I try to say good-bye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near Good-bye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near Good-bye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near
