A Paler Shade Of You |
|
I'm getting over you, that's what I tell myself You said find someone new, now I've found someone else You said I'd do just fine with or without you near But you took this heart of mine, and it's gone from me, I fear Chorus One: I look into her eyes and I realize what I thought was true No matter how I say I love her She is just A PALER SHADE OF YOU She smiles and looks at me, and the sunlight hits her hair I smile but you're all I see, and I feel that you still care Why must we play this game? Why won't you tell me how you feel? There cannot be any shame in a love that is so real Chorus Two: She looks into my eyes and I realize what I thought was true No matter how I try to love her She is just A PALER SHADE OF YOU Bridge: Listen to me now Why do I have to lie this way? What has she done to deserve this pain Except reminding me always of you? (Guitar solo) I know that the road is rough, we've been down that way before But I have had enough, I can't live this way anymore I'll have to go and tell her that we weren't meant to be Because all the visions I had were of you still loving me (Repeat first chorus) Chorus Three: We look in each other's eyes and now I see what I always knew No matter how I say I love her No matter how I kiss and touch her No matter how I try to love her She is just A PALER SHADE OF YOU A PALER SHADE OF YOU --January 1998 |
