Let Sleeping Dogs Lie


There's Something wrong, but I can't be sure
I Gotta know cause I'm feeling good
You've got me girl so I just can't move
If I don't head for ground. then I'm bound to lose!
Don't go giving me all your reasons
I can see them but they'll hurt me I know
Cause if the time should come, that you'll be leaving
Will I have the strength to let you go
I'll play the clown, when I'm insecure
I close my eyes if I'm not too sure
But things you do make me wanna shout
Let's give it time, and work it out
Everytime you think you've got it made, you stand
Last, don't you think that I can't stand this pain
Forever again well oh no...
I've crossed the line, so I just can't lose it
I'm tied and bound and I can't abuse it
And all the things we've been fighting for
We'll break it loose, I can take some more
Don t go giving me all your reasons
I can see them, but they'll hurt me I know
Cause if the time should come that you'll be leaving
Will I have the strength to let you go!
Please stop bringing me all your reasons
False pretenses only make me feel sad,
Cause if the time should come that you'll be leaving
Only hope that I will understand!

If youre leaving close the door.
Im not expecting people anymore.
Hear me grieving, Im lying on the floor.
Whether Im drunk or dead I really aint too sure.
Im a blind man, Im a blind man and my world is pale.
When a blind man cries, lord, you know there aint no sadder tale.

Had a friend once in a room,
Had a good time but it ended much too soon.
In a cold month in that room
We found a reason for the things we had to do.

Im a blind man, Im a blind man, now my room is cold.
When a blind man cries, lord, you know he feels it from his soul.

Day after day I'm waking up
To find that you're slipping away
Night after night
I can't fight the emptiness inside
There's nothing I can say
Now I know you're turning me away
It's only a disguise
But you don't have to hide cause
The truth is in your eyes tonight

I don't want to live a lie
But I don't want to say goodbye
And I can't let you go
even though it's over
I just can't let you go
I know your love is growing colder

One look in my eyes and you'd realize:
You got my heart in your hands
Won't you let me know something more
Where did we go wrong?

I don't want to fight
All I want to do is try and understand
I'm reaching out for you
Babe what can I do
I've been holding on so long

I don't want to live a lie
But I don't want to say goodbye
I can't let you go
Even though it's over
I just can't let you go
Though your love is growing colder
And I can't let you go
Even though it's over

I don't want to live a lie
But I don't want to say goodbye
I want you by my side
And I can't let you go
Even though it's over
I just can't let you go
I feel your love is growing colder
I can't let you go
even though it's over
I just can't let you go
(I) Feel your love growing colder

Don't go
Though I know it's over
I just can't let you go...

Can you remember remember my name
As I flow through your life
A thousand oceans I have flown
And cold spirits of ice
All my life
I am the echo of your past

I am returning the echo of a point in time
Distant faces shine
A thousand warriors I have known
And laughing as the spirits appear
All your life
Shadows of another day

And if you hear me talking on the wind
Youve got to understand
We must remain
Perfect strangers

I know I must remain inside this silent well of sorrow

A strand of silver hanging through the sky
Touching more than you see
The voice of ages in your mind
Is aching with the dead of the night
Precious life (your tears are lost in
Falling rain)

And if you hear me talking on the wind
Youve got to understand
We must remain
Perfect strangers
