Seems like forever and a day
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
If my intentions are misunderstood
~#**************#~
Please be kind, Ive done all I should
~#**************#~
I wont ask of you what I would not do
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
Oh-oh-oh, I saw the damage in you, ooh-ooh
~#**************#~
My fortunate one, the envy of youth
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Why would they tell me to please those that laugh in my face?
~#**************#~
When all of the reasons theyve taught us fall over themselves to give way, oh yeah
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Its not a question of whether my heart is true
~#**************#~
Streamlined, I had to pull through
~#**************#~
Look for a new beginning on you
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
Oh, I, I got a message for you, ooh
~#**************#~
Up and away, its what I got to do, ooh
~#**************#~
Forgive what you have for what you might lose
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
What would you say if I told you that Im to blame?
~#**************#~
And what would you do if I had to deny your name?
~#**************#~
Where would you go if I told you I love you and then walked away? Oh, yeah
~#**************#~
And who should I turn to if not for the ones that you could not save? Oh, now
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
I told you when I found you
~#**************#~
If there were doubts, you should be careful and unafraid
~#**************#~
Now they surround you
~#**************#~
And all that amounts to is love that you fed by perversion and pain
~#**************#~
[Guitar Solo]
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
So, if my affections are misunderstood
~#**************#~
And you decide Im up to no good
~#**************#~
Dont ask me to enjoy them just for you
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Ask yourself why I would choose to prostitute myself
~#**************#~
To live with fortune and shame? Oh, yeah
~#**************#~
When you should have turned to the hearts
~#**************#~
Of the ones that you would not save
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
I told you when I found you
~#**************#~
All that amounts to is love that you fed by perversion and pain
~#**************#~
[Guitar Solo]
