lyrics

He comes around 'cause you love him madly
And he leaves his heart outside the door
He's gone again when you need him badly
All you want is a little more

He's twisted your heart out
Your chest is aching; you can't even find your breath
But what good is love when
It's slowly dying a sad and painful death?

So, come on, dear
If you're not happy here
You don't have to stay
Embrace the love that's all around you
And walk away

I know he's told you he can't live without you
But he leaves you there to live alone
You can't have love when it's not open
When you don't feel it in every bone

So, come on, dear
If you're not happy here
You don't have to stay
Embrace the love that's all around you
And walk away

So a shadow consumes you
And light is deflected off your body and off your soul
If he really cares for you
He will let go of you and give you back the love he stole

So, come on, dear
If you're not happy here
You don't have to stay
Embrace the love that's all around you
And walk away
