When you were young

And on

Your own,

How did it feel

To be

Alone?

I was always thinking,

Games that I was playing,

Trying to make the best of my time.

But only love

Can break

Your heart;

Try to be sure

Right from

The start.

Yes, only love

Can break

Your heart,

But if your world

Should fall

Apart...

I have a friend

I've nev- -er seen

He hides his head

Inside

A dream

Someone should call him

And see if he can come out,

Try to lose the gang that he's found.

But only love

Can break

Your heart;

Try to be sure

Right from

The start.

Yes, only love

Can break

Your heart,

But if your world

Should fall

Apart...

I was always thinking,

I was always thinking.

I was always thinking,

I was always thinking.

I was always thinking,

I was always thinking.

I was always thinking.

I was always thinking,

Games that I was playing.

I was always thinking,

Games that I was playing.

I was always thinking,

I was always thinking.

I was always thinking,

I was always thinking.

I - / I - / I - / I - /

I was always thinking,

Games that I was playing.

I was always thinking,

Games that I was playing.

I was always thinking,

Games that I was playing.

I was always thinking,

Games that I was playing.
