lyrics

Me with you, well that's a deal falling through
Now you've got to tell me something I won't understand
Till it's something that I'm old enough to do

And we said our goodbyes and I waved you down our street
Something in me died, something was released
I can still hear the lie

I want to be with you, I want stay with you, but now I've gotta go
I want to be with you, I want stay with you, but now I've gotta go

Tears and smiles, the day my life began, though still a child
I've travelled down the years in search of something that you took from me
What it is to be a man

And I've tried to forgive, but it's the hardest thing to do
And I understood why they will never forgive you
We can still hear the lie

I want to be with you, I want stay with you, but now I've gotta go
I want to be with you, I want stay with you, but now I've gotta go

I can still hear the lie

I want to be with you, I want stay with you, but now I've gotta go
