Words Are Just Words

Time after time you said you'd be there for me

But over and over your words ring of insincerity

[Bridge:]

These words that pass your lips

Often spoken but never meant

You hurt the ones you love

Am I the one that you love to hate

Say what you mean

And mean what you say

[Chorus:]

Why must I live in fear

Why must I hurt this way

Contemplating my every move

Insecure 'til your dying day

You inflict the pain

'Cause I'm the one that you call friend

Had enough of your foolish games

Just go Just go away

I would walk a thousand miles if you asked me to

But why must I spend my whole life proving these things to you

[Bridge / Chorus]

How many times must I stand broken hearted

When will I ever learn

How many times must I fall to pieces

Everybody gets a turn

Time and time again

You're like an old black and white movie

It's all been done before

You're the same old song and dance

You're a tired old cliche

You know the end before it comes

Why must I live in fear

Why must I hurt this way

Contemplating my every move

Insecure 'til your dying day

You inflict the pain

'Cause I'm the one that you call friend

Had enough of your foolish games

This will end This must end

If I had a dime for every time you said you loved me

I'd be a millionaire

But if I had a million for every time that you meant it

I'd be poor as hell

Never will I ever

Walk this road again

For as long as I live the love that I give

Won't be given up in vain

[Chorus]

Time after time you said you'd be there for me

How many times must I fall to pieces

Everybody gets a turn

Never will I ever walk this road again

But for as long as I live the love that I give

Won't be given up in vain

[Chorus]
