5 – BEFORE IT BEGAN

We were standin´ in my doorway
There was a star glistenin´ in the cool of your blue eyes
There was some music from the backyard
I tried to find the truth
But all I found was me an´ you / Befooled by lies

We were standin´ in my doorway
I tried to take your hand, but you withdrew
There were some people on the sidewalk
I tried to make you smile
That only worked for just a while / It passed right through

There´s something between us
We could have been lovers
We could have been friends
Now it hurts me to tears
To believe that it ended / Before it began

We were standin´ in my doorway
The bitter words you spoke clanked like marbles to the ground
There were some cars around the corner
I tried to turn the page
But all I read was pride an´ rage / To put me down

There´s something between us
I could not understand, you could not understand
Now it hurts me to tears
To believe that it ended / Before it began

We were standin´ in my doorway
My skin screamed for the touch of your hands
There was a baby cryin´ somewhere
We talked an´ talked an´ talked
An´ felt so sad
Cause we just couldn´t understand

There´s something between us
But we were too blind to find out where we stand
Now it hurts me to tears
To believe that it ended / Before it began

Now I´m standin´ in my doorway
The yearnin´ won´t stop spinnin´ ´round my head
There´s no people, there´s no music
I try to fall out of the love
I didn´t want to fall in first
But it´s so sad, it´s so sad …
