Back in 1985 when cupid saw me take a divenI didn't think that I'd still benThinking of you now so wistfullynYou never took me through your hallwaynNever led me up the stairsnPast the years of useless longingnAnd where you used to say your prayersnnAnd, yes, it's hard for me to staynHarder still for me to stay awaynnCHORUS:nThe whisper of your mindnTies the flowers to the rainnThe window of your dreamnVoices the sun on your lipsnnYou know what stopped you liking musicnWell, that's what always held you backnWhat puts emotion at an arm's lengthnAnd takes the very thing you lacknFor you're not shallow, you're not godlessnWe all need something to believenAnd you believe you've lost that somethingnJust lost the will to be deceivednnAnd, yes, it's hard for me to staynHarder still for me to stay away
