Maybe I should make it clear
The man you see left standing here
Is just a changed and new kind of me
And I don't wait in case you call
No, I don't seem to care at all
Now I can't forget about you at night
Oh, but sometimes I can't fight
When I must, I can't help just
Reaching out to touch you
As though you were near me
I need you now, you're much too far off to hear me
I must let love die (I must let love die)
I must try, but I can't help just
Calling out, "I miss you"
As though you still listen
And I pretend to kiss you
With eyes that still glisten
You still hold me tight (You still hold me tight)
In a make-believe world of the night
In a make-believe world of the night)
You think you couldn't matter less
To see my mask of hopelessness
I've played a part and each line is right
Oh, but sometimes I can't fight
When I must, I can't help just
Reaching out to touch you
As though you were near me
I need you now, you're much too far off to hear me
But it somehow feels right (Somehow feels right)
In a make-believe world of the night
I'm reaching out to touch you
As though you were near me
I need you now, you're much too far off to hear me
I must let love die (I must let love die)
I must try, but I can't help just
Calling out, "I miss you"
As though you still listen
And I pretend to kiss you
With eyes that still glisten
You still hold me tight (You still hold me tight)
In a make-believe world of the night (Make-believe world of the night)
