"See And Don't See" Lyrics
(originally by Marie Lyons)
The only way I can get through the day
Is to make our life like it was yesterday
I get up in the morning after crying all night long
Laughing and talking like there ain't nothing wrong
Cause if I ever, if I ever face reality
I know, yes I know that's gonna be the end of me
So I just see and don't see, hear and don't hear
Know and don't know and cry
So I just see and don't see, hear and don't hear
Know and don't know and cry
Please make that girl stop hurting me
I see that love look in her eyes
Just the way she used to look at me
And I hear she's telling him
"Pretty soon I'll be free."
I must look pitiful standing here in the dark all by myself
The only way I can take it is pretend I'm someone else!
Cause if I ever, if I ever face reality
I know, yes I know that's gonna be the end of me
And if the whole world keeps turnin, turnin, turnin turnin around
I'm gonna away, gonna away ...
So I just see and don't see, hear and don't hear
Know and don't know and cry
See and don't see, hear and don't hear
Know and don't know and cry
See and don't see, hear and don't hear
Know and don't know and cry
See and don't see, hear and don't hear
Know and don't know
Please make that girl stop hurting me
