A Lover's Lament Lyrics - Singles - David James Stewart

Ive been trying to find the reason why 

You ran away and said goodbye 

And you left the only life youve ever known 

Now I dont know if I can make it 

But I tell you I cant fake it 

One more day 

Cause Im tired of my heart aching 

And Im tired of my heart breaking 

Im tired of living in between 

And if reality and my hope never find a way to collide 

If I missed my only chance 

If this is what you want to do if you are sure to see this through 

Then I guess that Ill begin again without you 

Ill take a chance, take a risk 

Let some love into my midst 

Step into the light and trust that I 

Am going to be all right, tonight 

Well, I hope you find what youre looking for 

Become content and dont want more 

But now Im pretty sure I never knew you 

You compromise and justify, youve traded truth for a lie 

And know that I dont want to change your mind 

And what do you hope to find now that youre on your way and on your own 

Tell me who you want to be 

If this is what you want to do, if you are sure to see this through 

Then I guess that Ill conclude 

I never knew you, you never let me in 

You never knew me, but its time to begin 

To take a chance, take a risk 

Let some love into my midst 

Step into the light and trust that I 

Am going to be all right, tonight 

If only you could look and see what lies deep inside of me 

Has rushed up to the top, become reality 

How could I have ever known 

That another page, another song 

Was to be wrote, was to be played 

So I will take a chance and let myself 

Be hurt and known and touched and loved, and all the above 

Ill take a chance, take a risk 

Let some love into my midst 

Step into the light and trust that I 

Am going to be all right, tonight 

Ill take a chance, oh, Ill take a chance, tonight
