Don't know why you're not talking to me I don't know what went wrong Two people who had so much together Really ought to get along - yeah Something started to change inside of you and right out of the blue two friends with such a lot to give I don't know where you are or what you're going through now What are we trying to prove?
Cause when this world's too big to take on your shoulders Feels like love is in vain You could break down in my arms babe But it really hurts when you turn away And I can take the look you give me, believe me I know you are in pain I can take the names you call me But I can't stand when you turn away Don't turn away
Cause I can feel you all around me but you keep me here in the dark And each time we try to settle down Something seems to keep us apart, don't it baby You and me, we're on the outside pretending we don't care Too proud to show our feelings open up the love you know we could share I will always be there
Cause when this world's too big to take on your shoulders Feels like love is in vain You could reach out for my hand babe But it really hurts when you turn away And I can take the look you give me, believe me I know you are in pain And I can take the names you call me But I can't stand when you turn away
And when the world's too big to take on your shoulders Feels like your love is in vain You could reach out for my hand child But it really hurts when you turn away And I can take the look you give me, believe me I know you are in pain And I can take the names you call me But I can't stand when you turn away Don't turn away
