I know you think
That I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it,
Well I'd still have felt it
Where's the sense in that?
I promise
I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I know I left
Too much mess and destruction
To come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand
If you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
Then I'm sure that that makes sense
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....
That I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it,
Well I'd still have felt it
Where's the sense in that?

It's good to love, and to be loved.
I hope your life has an abundance of both.
she does have an abundance of both
but sometimes she loses sight ...
or forgets
... they are there anyway
and she will find them again
[GORDIE'S YOU]
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
Wanting far too much for far too long
Looking back I could have played it differently
Won a few more moments who can tell
But it took time to understand the man
Now at least I know I know him well
Wasn't it good?
Wasn't he fine?
Isn't it madness
He can't be mine?
[DES' SHE]
Oh so good
Oh so fine
He can't be mine?
[GORDIE'S YOU]
But in the end he needs
A little bit more than me --
More security
[DES' SHE]
He needs his fantasy
And freedom
[GORDIE'S YOU]
I know him so well.
[DES' SHE]
No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide.
[GORDIE'S YOU]
Looking back I could
Have played things
Some other way
[DES' SHE]
Looking back I could
Have played it
Differently
Learned about the man
Before I fell
[GORDIE'S YOU]
I was just a little
Careless maybe
[DES' SHE]
But I was
Ever so much
Younger then
Now at least
[GORDIE'S YOU]
Now at least
I know him well
[BOTH]
I know I know him well
[DES' SHE]
Wasn't it good?
Wasn't he fine?
Isn't it madness
[GORDIE'S YOU]
Oh so good
Oh so fine
[BOTH]
He won't be mine?
Didn't I know
How it would go?
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart?
[DES' SHE]
Wasn't it good?
Wasn't he fine?
[GORDIE'S YOU]
Isn't it madness
He won't be mine?
[DES' SHE]
He won't be mine?
[GORDIE'S YOU]
But in the end he needs a
Little bit more than me -
More security
[DES' SHE]
He needs his
Fantasy and freedom
[GORDIE'S YOU]
I know him so well
[DES' SHE]
It took time to understand him
[BOTH]
I know him so well
Oh, a duet! :-)
Yaknow, they're both right.
*sending much love*
