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

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

'Cause I'm afraid of being close
Where I need to be the most
'Cause I'm afraid of being close
Where I need to be the most

And I'm afraid I've spent my whole life
Waiting for love
Til my last day has come
To run away
