There's no tender way to say it's the end And so win or lose, I am forced to choose Between a lover and a loving friend Let me hear you say how you cursed the day You opened up your heart to me That you ever invited me in Tell me I'm the loser and you win I don't wanna see you cry, I beg you try Not to let the pain I'm causing reach your eyes I don't wanna see you cry Aim your words like spears Don't break me up by breaking down in tears Hide your pain that when porch comes to shove Don't keep your pride locked deep inside Rage against the dawn of my love Don't say my name, give me all the blame Call me heartless, call me cruel And accuse me of dealing in lies Just don't let my leaving cloud your eyes I don't wanna see you cry, I beg you try Not to let the pain I'm causing reach your eyes I don't wanna see you cry You gotta aim your words like spears Don't break me up by breaking down in tears Dreams come, dreams go Some fade, some grow Dream on, dream on You've got to dream on After I'm gone I don't wanna see you cry, I beg you try Not to let the pain I'm causing reach your eyes I don't wanna see you cry You gotta aim your words like spears Don't break me up by breaking down in tears Don't break me up by breaking down in tears
