Give me time
To realise my crime
Let me love and steal
I have danced
Inside your eyes
How can I be real
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Precious kisses, words that burn me
Lovers never ask why
In my heart the fire's burning
Choose my colour, find a star
Precious people always tell me
That's a step too far
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Words are few and I have spoken
I could waste a thousand years
Wrapped in sorrow, words are token
Come inside and catch my tears
You've been talking but believe me
If it's true you do not know
This girl loves without a reason
I'm prepared to let you go
If it's love you want from me
Then take it away
Everything is not what you see
It's over and over again
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
