Ever since I’ve seen your face
This life of mine has gone to waste
I was young and you were old
And I always knew you were cold
At the start you had a heart
But in the end you lost your friend
Can you see your own dark face?
It’s dieing in a lonely place

Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you

As we get old, we lose our place
Reflecting back the world’s disgrace
I feel so low, I feel so humble
Sometimes in life we take a tumble
Don’t let anybody tell you that you’re no good
Cause you know they would
Don’t let anybody tell you what you should do
Cause it’s not that way and…

Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
We were young and we were pure
And life was just an open door
I said oh, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you

You were me and I was you
This world of ours it felt brand new
You took me a little further…
I heard it all before, I’ve heard it all before
I can’t hear it anymore
Your hair was long, your eyes was blue
Guess what I’m gonna do to you

Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
We were young and we were pure
And life was just an open door
I said oh, oh, how I cannot bear the thought…
Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said oh, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
We were young and we were pure…
