David Denies Lyrics
It’s what he wants but he won’t say
He’d rather make-believe—I want to say goodbye
It’s down to her although I know
She never made him happy—now she makes him cry
He cannot work he cannot think
Beyond the guilt he has for leaving her alone
I’m going down I cannot breathe
He doesn’t think to leave me anything at all
David denies—that he’ll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies—but he’s left his love behind
(left his love behind)
Its what he wants I’m almost sure
And I can hardly stand him saying its not so
And so I’ll wait and so I’ll hope
Somehow I can convince him not to let me go
David denies—that he’ll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies—but he’s left his love behind
(left his love behind)
David denies—that he’ll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies—but he’s left his love behind
(left his love behind)
David denies—that he’ll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies—but he’s left his love behind
(left his love behind)
And so I’ll wait and so I’ll hope
Somehow I can convince him
And so I’ll wait and so I’ll hope
Somehow I can convince him not to let me go
He’d rather make-believe—I want to say goodbye
It’s down to her although I know
She never made him happy—now she makes him cry
Beyond the guilt he has for leaving her alone
I’m going down I cannot breathe
He doesn’t think to leave me anything at all
(but he always changes)
David denies—but he’s left his love behind
(left his love behind)
And I can hardly stand him saying its not so
And so I’ll wait and so I’ll hope
Somehow I can convince him not to let me go
(but he always changes)
David denies—but he’s left his love behind
(left his love behind)
(but he always changes)
David denies—but he’s left his love behind
(left his love behind)
(but he always changes)
David denies—but he’s left his love behind
(left his love behind)
Somehow I can convince him
And so I’ll wait and so I’ll hope
Somehow I can convince him not to let me go
