Go On

Well i don't get excited
Each time that we're invited
To some social event
Cos with each glance you're stealing
I get that same old feeling
I know that he will be there
You look across the table
Straight at that other guy
I see that look in your eye
And even though i know it
I try hard not to show it
Go on and make me cry
Go on, go on, go on
Go on
Though you think he's playing
Sweeter than the wine
Don't let him steal a moment
I'm running out of time
I feel our love grow colder
As you touch your shoulder
Each time that we're dancing by
I've lost your love so tender
Very well, i will surrender
Go on and hear me cry
Go on, go on, go on
Go on
This looks like the last time
These arms will hold you tight
So if you're going to love me
We only have tonight
The final scene is over
Looks like you win again
You may think that you always will
But oh, he's gonna hurt you
Oh yeah, and when he hurts you
You know that i love you still
Go on, go on, go on
Go on
