Desperation's causin' me
To question every single word you say
The distance that keeps growin'
In between us, girl, just leaves me so afraid
Well, you tried so hard to carry on
But I can tell there's somethin' wrong these days
Well girl, I've gotta know the truth
Just give it to me straight, don't look away

Don't look away
Don't look away
When I ask you if you love me still
And if you're gonna stay
Don't look away

Well, I've known you long enough to know
Your tryin not to let your feelins' show
Lately when i hold you near i still feel I'm sittin here alone
Well, I still feel I'm sittin' here alone
This confusion settin' in your mind
Blockin' all the words you mean to say
Well girl, I've gotta know the truth
Just give it to me straight, don't look away

Don't look away
Don't look away
When I ask you if you love me still
And if you're gonna stay
Don't look away
Don't look away
Don't look away

Well girl, I've gotta know the truth
Just give it to me straight, don't look away
When I ask you if you love me still
And if you're gonna stay
Don't look away
