I know a way that you can stay away from me
It`s easier than what you heard and what you see
I`ve been counting (I`ve been counting)
And what I keep (And what I keep)
Isn`t what you need, knowing what you need
Building sure-fire hearts into life-like ones
I can`t complain, explain it`s hard to be that way
I can`t be that way
I can`t believe it`s up to me to fade that way
I can`t fade that way
Reminding me I cannot stay
I think it`s strange that you could change your mind for me
I only bought your line of thought that I could see
You`ve been counting
On what I keep
Isn`t what you need, knowing what you need
Building sure-fire hearts into life-like ones
Reminding me I can`t stay alone, I don`t know what you mean
I know I`ve finally worked it out
I can be that way. I can be that way
I know I`ve asked is this all true
I can fade that way. I can fade that way
