Intro
DusJust before the lights went out
Duswe sat up and talked about
Dusall the things that we would be
DusI just wanted him to be with me
Riff
Dusbut he had a mind of his own
Dusand he did not mind being alone
Dusleft me there in my little world
Dusleft me there like a little girl
Chorus
he said, ?don?t get hung up;
hang ups will get you down?
he said, ?don?t look back;
look up and then look around:
Dusaround that time I was feeling high
Duslike I never had to try
Dusto kick myself up out of bed
Duskick these worries out of my head
Chorus
he said ?it?s better this way;
one day you?ll understand?
he said, ?i?m leaving today?
and he let go of my hand
I know that i?ll never see him again
not the way the same way I saw him then
I know that when I get back on my feet
I will walk away from misery
Riff
Duswhat do you say when it?s all been said
Dushow do you feel when it?s all been felt
Duswhere do you go when it?s all gone
Dusand you don?t care enough to carry on
Chorus
I say close your eyes,
look down deep inside
someone is there for you,
someone who cares for you
I know it?s easier to say than do
easier to look away than see it through
I know it?s easier to think than feel
easier to make it up than make it real
it?s hard to love, it?s hard not to love
