That's something

I wipe the tears from your eyes.

Say nothing and still you seem so surprized.

Though tears fall like rain

it's gone too far.

Keep saying

it's time to break it -

The tears and the pain and the tears and the pain.

This music keeps running through my head now

ooh.

I'm climbing out

I'm drifting away from you.

Aaaaah - just send my heart

aaaaah - my heart

Aaaaah - just send my heart

aaaaah -

and now I find a second time.

There's nothing

nothing I would not give for you.

No feelings is all I have to show now

ooh.

Don't say who's to blame

is this still a game for you?

Aaaaah - just send my heart

aaaaah - my heart

. . .

Aaaaah - just send my heart

aaaaah - my heart

Aaaaah - just send my heart

aaaaah - just send my heart

aaaaah.
