I don't want to hurt you,
No reason have I for fear,
I ain't guilty of crimes accused before,
But I'm guilty of fear.
I'm certain that,
But I'm scared of what we're creating,
This love affair.

You don't get something for nothing,
Too now,
Got to try a little harder,
It could be sweet.

Like a long forgotten dream.
And we don't need them,
To cast the fate we have,
Love don't always shine through,
‘Cause I don't want to lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This love affair.

You don't get something for nothing,
Too now,
Got to try a little harder,
It could be sweet,

But the thoughts we try to deny,
Take a toll upon our lives.
Struggle on in depths of pride,
Tangled up in single lives
‘Cause I don't want to lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This love affair.

You don't get something for nothing,
Turn back,
Got to try a little harder.

‘Cause I don't want to lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This love affair.

You don't get something for nothing,
Turn back,
Got to try a little harder,
It could be sweet.
