it could be sweet

i don't want to hurt you

for no reason have i but fear

and i ain't guilty of the crimes you accuse me of

but i'm guilty of fear

i'm sorry to remind

you but i'm scared of what we're creating

this life ain't fair

you don't get something for nothing

turn now

mmmm gotta try a little harder

it could be sweet

like a long forgotten dream

and we don't need them to cast the fate we have

love don't always shine thru

cos i don't wanna lose

what we had last time your leaving this life ain't fair

you don't get something for nothing

turn now

mmmm gotta try a little harder

it could be sweet. but the thoughts we try to deny

take a toll upon our lives

we struggle on in depths of pride

tangled up in single minds

cos i don't wanna lose

what we had last time your leaving this life ain't fair

you don't get something for nothing

turn back

mmmm gotta try a little harder

cos i don't wanna lose

what we had last time your leaving this life ain't fair

you don't get something for nothing

turn back

mmmm gotta try a little harder

it could be sweet
