I knew you wanted to tell me In your voice there was something wrong But if you would turn your face away from me You cannot tell me you're so strong Just let me ask of you one small thing As we have shared so many tears With fervor our dreams we planned a whole life long Now are scattered on the wind In the terms of endearment In the terms of the life that you love In the terms of the years that pass you by In the terms of the reasons why Through the years I've grown to love you Though your commitment to most would offend But I stuck by you holding on with my foolish pride Waiting for you to give in You never really tried or so it seems I've had much more than myself to blame I've had enough of trying everything And this time it is the end In the terms of endearment In the terms of the life that you love In the terms of the years that pass you by In the terms of the reasons why There's no more coming back this way The path is overgrown and strewn with thorns They've torn the life-blood from your naked eyes Cast aside to be forlorn In the terms of endearment In the terms of the life that you love In the terms of the years that pass you by In the terms of all the reasons why In the terms of endearment In the terms of the life that you love In the terms of the years that pass you by In the terms of all of the reasons why Funny, how it seems that all I've tried to do Seems to make no difference to you at all
