Was it something in the rain Or the chance of love again That made me explain The secrets of my soul I guess i only needed Someone to hold For i was gone without a trace When the rain blew away (Chorus) And it seems i've spent my whole life Waiting for love And when it comes I always run away Was it something from a dream That touched my memory Or a picture i didn't know, i'd seem That made me stop and stare And then i lost him If he was ever there Cos i'm afraid of being close Where i need to be the most (repeat Chorus) Cos i'm afraid of being close Where i need to be the most (repeat Chorus) And i'm afraid i've spent my whole life Waiting for love Til my last day has come To run away
