Duet With Paul Anka
There's something in the air
A feeling of danger
I've seen that look before
The face of a stranger
There's something wrong with you
I know I see it in your eyes
Believe me when I say
It's gonna be okay
I told you from the start
I won't be demanding
If you have a change of heart
I'll be understanding
I only know just where I stand
Or where I lie
Believe me when I say
We'll work it out some way
REFRAIN:
I'll never try to hold you back
I wouldn't try controlling you
If it's what you want
It's what I want
I want what's best for you
And if there's something else
That your looking for
I'll be the first to help you try
Believe me when I say
It's hard to say goodbye
I can tell by the way you lay your head
In my shoulder
Your hand is cold as ice, your hearts even
Colder.
It's tearing me up inside to think
No matter how hard I try
You may still walk away
No matter what I do or say
If it's what you want
It's what I want
I want what's best for you
And if there's something else
That your looking for
I'll be the first to help you try
Believe me when I say
It's hard to say goodbye
