If i turn away
From the shadow i see in your eyes
If i turn away
When you reach for my hand
It's only to keep you from seeing me

Turn away
From the echo of love in your smile
When i turn away
From the questions you ask
It's only to keep you from seeing

My love, my love
My love, my love

I would want you beside me
I would want you to stay
I would want you
But not this way

If i turn away
From the promise of waking in your arms
If i turn away
When you reach for my heart
It's only to keep you from seeing

My love, my love
My love, my love

I would want you beside me
I would want you to stay
I would want you
But not this way

If i turn away
