if you can understand
when i used to be just a friend
now i am so confused
so how about

when you are standing
right in front of me
my hands are shaking
what am i suppose to be

why are you trembling
come a step closer
because you have no idea
what its like to be me

you can stop that singing now
now when its all gone
now after it has faded
now don't blame yourself

nothing is new
it has all been done
its always the same song
so why does it always go wrong

if i can understand
before you can take another step toward me
you have to take one to yourself
only then i hope you'll come into my arms
