Just heard this on the radio for the first time in a while at lunch today and can't believe I never thought of it before:
In Too Deep ~ Phil Collins
All that time I was searching with nowhere to run to, it started me thinking,
Wondering what I could make of my life, and who'd be waiting,
Asking all kinds of questions to myself, but never finding the answers,
Crying at the top of my voice, and no one listening.
All this time, I still remember everything you said
There's so much you promised, how could I ever forget?
Listen, you know I love you, but I just can't take this,
You know I love you, but I'm playing for keeps,
Although I need you, I'm not gonna make this,
You know I want to, but I'm in too deep.
So listen, listen to me,
Ooh you must believe me,
I can feel your eyes go through me,
But I don't know why.
Ooh I know you're going, but I can't believe
It's the way that you're leaving -
It's like we never knew each other at all - it may be my fault,
I gave you too many reasons for being alone, when I didn't want to
I thought you'd always be there, I almost believed you.
All this time, I still remember everything you said,
There's so much you promised, how could I ever forget?
Listen, you know I love you, but I just can't take this,
You know I love you, but I'm playing for keeps,
Although I need you, I'm not gonna make this,
You know I want to, but I'm in too deep.
So listen, listen to me,
I can feel your eyes go through me
It seems I've spent too long
Only thinking about myself
Now I want to spend my life
Just caring about somebody else.
You know I love you, but I just can't take this,
You know I love you, but I'm playing for keeps,
Although I need you, I'm not gonna make this,
You know I want to, but I'm in too deep.
