Honestly

Honestly

What is love, is it a good thing ?
could it be something for everyone
what is love, is it an evil thing ?
is it meant to be the one thing
to bring us all to our knees.

It's been so long since i held you
i can't remember what it feels like
to have you in my arms and feel your warmth
there's this feeling of loss when you're not around
too many years have come and gone
and throughout all them I've been on my own

Sometimes i try dream i can slip back in time
and try to see if i can mend all of the wrongs
but each time i try it just gets twisted and churned
and i find i wake up still all tattered and torn
what can i do , what can i say

What is love, is it a good thing ?
could it be something for everyone
what is love, is it an evil thing ?
is it meant to be the one thing
to bring us all to our knees.

You always cry when have something to say
affairs of the heart always makes you this way
you scream out loud when you think i can't hear
and when i try to be honest you just turn away

How can we be one when you don't want to try
there's must be a reason that you don't want to say
i can feel our love and it's slipping away
what happened to the promises of yesterday

What is love, is it a good thing ?
could it be something for everyone
what is love, is it an evil thing ?
is it meant to be the one thing
to bring us all to our knees.

Damned if i do, damned if i don't
played for the fool again, right from the start
stabbed in the heart again, deep in the chest
i'm tired of playing Cupid's cruel game
and always failing the test
