I’m just the pieces of the man I used to be
I’m far away from home
And I’ve been facing this alone
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I’ve been looking back to find
Where I went wrong
If you can’t make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You’re headed for disaster
‘cos you never read the signs
Every time
I’m just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there’s no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can’t you see that it’s impossible to choose
No there’s no making sense of it
Every way I go I’m bound to lose
Just as sure as none at all
It’ll drain the power that’s in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You’re the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you
It’ll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won’t understand why
You’d give your life, you’d sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end…
In the end.
or leave a tear in your eye?
And does he paint your life in gray?
I’d like to color it someday
I’d reach my hand up to you
When the world is cold and blue
I’ll be your hero baby
If you let me be, I’ll be the one
I’ll be the one to love you more
I’ll be your everything and more
I’ll be your rainbow baby after the rain
I’ll be the sun that warms your soul
I’ll be the someone you could hold
I’ll be your hero baby, take me
I’ll be the one
Well does he feel the same way too
When everything won’t turn out right
I’ll turn the darkness into light
(Refrain)
To hold you
I will be the air you breathe until the end of time
I’ll be the one to please you
I will never never never let you down
(Chorus)
