[00:42.73] I try to say goodbye and I choke
[00:47.29] Try to walk away and I stumble
[00:50.35] Though I try to hide it, it's clear
[00:53.56] My world crumbles when you are not near
[00:56.91] Goodbye and I choke
[00:59.68] I try to walk away and I stumble
[01:02.97] Though I try to hide it, it's clear

[01:20.92] And I may seem all right and smile when you leave
[01:27.19] But my smiles are just a front

[02:17.03] May I be your possession?
[02:20.52] Boy, I need your touch
[02:23.43] Your love, kisses and such
[02:26.61] With all my might I try
[02:29.65] But this I can't deny
[02:34.08] Deny
[02:38.30] And I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
[02:42.18] (But I'm dreaming of you, babe)
[02:44.58] And I'll keep my cool, but I'm feigning
[02:48.65] I try to say goodbye and I choke (yeah)
