You say you're free
Well your freedom's killing me
And I feel just like a statue

To be admired from a distance
My love collides with your resistance
Then bounces back inside of me


You say you're strong
Well your strength just shatters me

As I scramble for my pieces
But the puzzle keeps repeating
It seems so self-defeating

How we plan each move so carefully

Chorus:

And still we both hang on
We risk a night and greet the down
AN affair for you - for me a song

Then suddenly it's over
Two cynics passing through
I blew it - I fell in love with you

The thing I swore I'd never do
And now m love just turns you colder


You say you're trying to find yourself
Well I know how hard that is
And I wish that I could help you

To share while like keeps teaching
To share while you keep reaching
But you prefer to reach out privately


Repeat Chorus


You say you're free
Well you freedom's killing me
And I feel just like a statue

To be admired from a distance
My love collides with your resistance
Then bounces back inside of me

The pattern goes on endlessly
