How to walk and where to run
How to walk and where to run
I see you kissing in other peoples arms
See you kissing in cheap bars
How to walk and where to run
How to walk and where to run
I see you kissing oblivious
Loving only your pain
I'm walking in oblivion
Walking in oblivion
I walk with a childs face
Remembering our days
Walking in oblivion
Walking in oblivion
Its gotta give, its gotta change
Today is the day
To all the men who i've loved
To all the men who i've loved
Something to free your angry hearts
I'm opening up my arms
To all the men whom i have loved
To all the men whom i have loved
Speak of the fear inside
It's time to change, there still is time
Do you remember walking?
Do you remember wtaching?
Our faces in the falling hearts of children
To all the men whom i have loved
To all the men whom i have loved
I dedicate my song saying
Today is the day
Today is the day
So we fall
And we fall again
And i have come
To tell you today
That i loved you
There's still time to say
We're falling hearts of our children
Through hating and loving
Through lucking and nothing
Through all manner of sorrows
That i have spoken
I open up my tender heart
I open up my tender heart
To all the men whom i have loved
All of those who i adored
But i remember something
I remember walking
When my heart was frozen
With that feeling
It's gotta give, it's gotta change
It's gotta give, it's gotta change
Turning round and round saying
Today is the day
Today is the day
So we fall
And we fall again
And i have come
To tell you today
That i loved you
There's still time to say
We're falling hearts of our children
