Ami:
The closer we get,
The harder to say,
To hold something back this long
Will push you away from me
But every day I feel you coming back to me,
To how we used to be and yet
All the memories we're rewriting
Would suffer if I told you
So the lie in me grows.
Another day goes
Until he knows.
Ben:
The closer we get,
The deeper I fall.
Believing this love is real
Means nothing'cause all I had
Might one day find a way of turning good to bad
So it makes me sad
To think that the man you've helped me find
Could fade away or leave me
So I try to ignore
The pain from before
And close the door.
Ami:
One more day.
Ben:
Tuesday.
Ami:
Wednesday.
Ben:
One more week has gone.
Both:
We carry on.
Ben:
Love is meeting a stranger
Who becomes the one you depend on.
Ami/Ben:
If I tell him what I know
Always
Could I stay with him?
With her I'm home.
Both:
The closer we get
The further we go.
To need him (her) the way I do
Is something I know is right
So why am I afraid to let the spark bring light
When it burns (so) bright (again)?
Holding on to all that was
Will only hurt tomorrow.
Tell me, what do I do?
Ben/Ami:
If the mem'ries break through
Would he choose to stay?
Should I stay?
