One Thousand
My heart's ablaze with a kind of emotionI see his face when I close my eyesI speak his name in my sleepCos he's here in my dreamsWhisperin' softly "I'll stay by your side"My heart's a drumAnd my mind is an oceanYou have my heartSo wherever I goI let you drum by the seaSending ripples through meLike a siren you beckon me home
I must have cried a thousand timesI've heard thousands of your liesWalked ten thousand miles for youSo for the thousandth time don't…Don't play with meDon't play with meDon't play with me no moreDon't you play with meDon't play with meDon't play with me no more
You were well disguised and protectedCos you wore your mask when we metAnd you never took it offNo you never took it offNo you never even knew what it meantAnd I tried to reason and bargain(reason and bargain yes I did)Even compromised and I begged(oh yes I begged oh yes I begged)Now I see what you areI know what you could beBut I'll never forget what you've been
I must have cried a thousand timesI've heard thousands of your liesWalked ten thousand miles for youSo for the thousandth time don'tDon't play with meDon't play with meDon't play with me no moreDon't you play with meDon't play with meDon't play with me no more
If it's not what you wantAnd I'm not what you wantThen what do you want from me?I'm screaming you wonAt the top of my lungsSo why not be done with me?Let it burn, let it burn, let it burnCos boy I don't trust yaSo it's bitter when I say soI know I still love ya
