well you stole my heart
and i'll get it back
but look me in the eye babe
tell me why ya gonna love me like that
why ya gonna love me like that
well i've walked this world
five times or more
and after all this walking babe
you still got me crawlin' on the floor
crawlin' on the floor
and i know this world keeps on turning
keeps me yearning
chorus:
how can you turn and walk away
pretending everything's okay?
how can you turn your back?
tell me why ya gonna love me like that
why ya gonna love me like that
well i thought you'd listen
but i'm shattered like broken glass
well i thought that we'd be different babe
yeah, i thought that we would last
i thought that we would last
and i know this world keeps on spinning
every minute that you're in it
chorus:
how can you turn and walk away
pretending everything's okay?
how can you turn your back?
tell me why ya gonna love me like that
why ya gonna love me like that
love me or leave me baby but don't lead me on
with loving like yours believe me i'm better
i'm better off alone
well i was your gypsy
throwing diamonds at your feet
drifted 'round you like a satellite
gave you everything you need
everything you need
and i know this would keeps on turning
keeps me yearning and yearning
chorus:
how can you turn and walk away
pretending everything's okay?
how can you turn your back?
tell me why ya gonna love me like that
why ya gonna love me like that
how can you just break away?
why can't you find the words to say?
love is something you work at
tell me why ya gonna love me like that
why ya gonna love me like that
why ya gonna love me like that
how can you throw us away?
look at what you lost today
now everything is shades of gray
and now you're pushing me away
say all the things you want to say
thought we were going all the way
play all the games you wanna play
slowly we just fade away
