You say you're free Well, your freedom's killing me And I feel just like a statue To be admired from a distance My love collides with your resistance Then bounces back inside of me You tell me that you're strong Well, your strength just shatters me As I scramble for my pieces But the puzzle keeps repeating It seems so self-defeating How we plan each move so carefully And still we both hang on We risk the night and greet the dawn An affair for you, for me a song And then suddenly it's over Two cynics passing through I blew it, I fell in love with you The thing I swore I'd never do And now my love just turns you colder You say you're trying to find yourself Well, I know how hard that is And I wish that I could help you To share while life keeps teaching To share while you keep reaching But you prefer to reach out privately And still we both hang on We risk a night and greet the dawn An affair for you, for me a song And then suddenly it's over Two cynics passing through I blew it, I fell in love with you The thing I swore I'd never do And now my love just turns you colder You say you're free Your freedom's killing me I feel just like a statue To be admired from a distance My love collides with your resistance Then bounces back inside of me The pattern goes on endlessly
