You don't come around no more Like you used to do Oh God, I miss your company Your innocence you know just like Yeah, like it used to be And how I need you here with me You just kept on askin' why And never wantin' to really try 'Cause all the times I've cried All this pain I've tried to hide What am I supposed to dream When nothin's ever what it seems' The pain, it drifts from day to day And it makes me think That how I wish it would subside To smile again all the fears be gone Find my self respect There's nothin' done with that effect You just kept on askin' why And never wantin' to really try 'Cause all the times I've cried All this pain I've tried to hide What am I supposed to dream When nothin's ever what it seems' Oh, you never were the one Oh, you never were the one All the times I've cried All this pain I've tried to hide What am I supposed to dream When nothin's ever what it seems' All the times I've cried All this pain I've tried to hide What am I supposed to dream When nothin's ever what it seems'
