I want to be able to tell you all what I think of you I want to be able to touch you whenever I needed I want to be able to have you here close and never leave you I want, but I will not, not today
I could have you in my arms if I wanted to I could give my life if need be I could tell you my feelings if he had courage I might, could, but I can not
(CHORUS) Because I could not bear to have you then lose you Not bear to see you without being able to touch Not bear to hear her sweet voice just unable to respond I could not bear, no, I could not Every second that passes is one less for me to see you And every minute is like an eternity In my mind only the image of his shadow fading Do not go back my love I could not bear, no, I could not
I lie in bed but I can not sleep A profound insomnia prevents me to close my eyes And in my dreams you no longer appears I see your shadow fade, yeah, you're gone
Only if I need to, I want to come when I call him Only if I ask, I want you to kiss me slowly Only if I want to, I do not want to go away tonight I do not want to go, no, please do not go
(CHORUS) Because I could not bear to have you then lose you Not bear to see you without being able to touch Not bear to hear her sweet voice just unable to respond I could not bear, no, I could not Every second that passes is one less for me to see you And every minute is like an eternity In my mind only the image of his shadow fading Do not go back my love I could not bear, no, I could not
Could I handle the crying again? Could I take your hand firmly? Would I have one more chance after tomorrow? Would you listen if I called? And would if I asked? Yes, I could, I would Insist on my tears down my face My arms falter and I no longer hold your hand My cruel heart, no longer gives me more chances And my tongue hangs if I ask you to stay But I try, yes I try
(CHORUS) But I could not bear to have you then lose you Not bear to see you without being able to touch Not bear to hear her sweet voice just unable to respond I could not bear, no, I could not
Why must you be so cruel? If I give my life for attention I guess you'll never understand this feeling If you do not really live
I could not bear to have you then lose you Not bear to see you without being able to touch Not bear to hear her sweet voice just unable to respond I could not bear, no, I could not Every second that passes is one less for me to see you And every minute is like an eternity In my mind only the image of his shadow fading Just do not go again my love I could not bear, no, I could not
