"I Cannot Believe It's True" lyrics
"I Cannot Believe It's True"
When I opened your letter yesterday
I could not believe in my eyes
'Cause I've already given all I have to give
And I think it must have slipped your mind
But I remember not too long ago
I gave it all, it's gone
And I gave it all to you
Now I'm living on borrowed time
But it's mine
Oh, d'you hear me?
I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do?
No, I cannot believe it's you, really you
Oh, these people I'm talking to don't understand
They don't seem to realize
They're listening but they're not hearing me
They're being too cruel to be kind
Any kind of feeling that I had is gone
'Cause I gave it all, it's gone
And I gave it all to you
Now I'm living on borrowed time
But it's mine
Oh, d'you hear me?
I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do
No, I cannot believe it's you, really you
Over and over, I keep on telling myself
Over and over, I hope I'm gonna wake up
Over and over, I know it's really happening
And there's nothing that I can say
'Cause nothing can change
All the things that you do to me
Nothing can make me stay
Oh, 'cause you know I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do
No, I cannot believe it's you, really you
I know it's a crying shame
It's all the same to you
It seems all so well laid out
But I cannot get through
Never meant it to show
It started happening, that's all you know
Ooh, I gave it all to you
Now I'm living on borrowed time
But it's mine
Oh, d'you hear me?
I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do
No, I cannot believe it's you, really you
Over and over, I keep on telling myself
Over and over, I hope I'm gonna wake up
But over and over, I know it's really happening
But there's nothing that I can say
Because nothing can change
All the things that you've done to me
Nothing can make me stay
Oh, because you know I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do
No, I cannot believe it's you, really you

Foreigner - "I Want To Know What Love Is" I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over

U2 - "With Or Without You" See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I'll wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you
With or without you...
Heart - "Alone" I hear the ticking of the clock
I'm lying here the room's pitch dark
I wonder where you are tonight
No answer on the telephone
And the night goes by so very slow
Oh I hope that it won't end though...
Culture Club - "Karma Chameleon" There's a loving in your eyes all the way
If I listened to your lies would you say
I'm a man without conviction
I'm a man who doesn't know
How to sell a contradiction

You come and...
