Freedom is an illusion
Generated by your brain
Too delicate for words
To ever explain

And love is the taste you get
On the tip of your tongue
Better to have loved and lost than
To have lived and never loved anyone

I'd stand in the line of fire for you
I'd bend over backwards for you
I'd do anything that you want me to do
Cause I don't have nothing if i don't have you
In my life

And it hurts cause its true

Pain is what keeps your eyes
from closing as the night falls
It eats you in your sleep
And wakes you when it gets light

And sadness is like a wave
That sweeps you off your feet
With tears that cut like knives
they're running like rivers down your cheeks

I'd stand in the line of fire for you
I'd bend over backwards for you
I'd do anything that you want me to do
Cause I don't have nothing if i don't have you
In my life

And you have to believe me cause its true

I'd bend over backwards for you
I'd do anything that you want me to do
Cause I don't have nothing if i don't have you
In my life

And it only hurts because it's true

Yeah it only hurts because it's true
Yeah it only hurts because it's true

Freedom is an illusion
Generated by your brain
Too delicate for words
To ever explain

And love is the taste you get
On the tip of your tongue
Better to have loved and lost than
To have lived and never loved anyone

And it only hurts
it only hurts cause it's true
