Wait for me I'll understand
I just need time to comprehend your changes
There's always been these changes in you
I remember that there was a time when
Fears we had we left behind and we danced
But it seems the more we learn
We learn that
It's over, It's over
It's dangerous this game we play
You're killing me with words
Forget if you can
The way you moved when our hands touched
You forced me to force you
Do you remember the dreams, the nightmares we shared?
The poison of love so pure it's deceiving
And deceit is all we have it's got to be over
It's over
It's dangerous this game we play
You're killing me with words
It's over, It's over
Too late to take a chance again
Now the wireless in my hand is ringing
The distance of our lives keeps spreading
Pounding I hear my heart, I'm not listen
Your voice from far away is screaming
It's over
It's dangerous this game we play
You're killing me with words
It's over, It's over
Too late to take a chance again
