TOCE

Profession

I hate to love you
Though I miss you when you go
And when I see that sparkle in your eyes
There's that one thing that I want you to know
I want you to know that I've fallen for you
And that when you leave I am lost
And I'm sorry if that is not what you wanted
Tough to be with you, I'd pay any cost
If you can't handle a girl who'd do anything for you
Then tell me and let me know
Because even if the truth may hurt me
I'd have understanding in my sorrow
I hate to love you
But in love with you I am
If you'd love me back I wouldn't care what they'd say
I wouldn't give a damn
When I talk to you I am happy
When you refuse me I am sad
I have tried and I can't stop loving you at all
Even when you make me mad.. so very mad
I hate to love you
But hating you made me cry
I wanted to be with you
And I didn't know why
Now that you know the truth
Don't you think we should talk?
If you don't need me then
I guess I'll take a walk
I love you so much
And there's nothing I can do
Please say that you want me
So that I can be with you.

Playhouse

Looking back is cold
Looking ahead is uncertain
On this stage of love and hate
We have pulled back the curtain
There we stand, both you and me
Our actions for all to view
Being judged for every movement
And all we say and do
Scene change one, the table's turned
All eyes are on you
We've heard the cliche many times before
Enthral us and say something new
Scene change two, where did you go?
You've turned and walked away
By the way that you had kissed me
I'd thought you were going to stay
Scene change three, I'm falling apart
You left me all alone
Cut me off cold, left the scene
Won't answer your phone
Scene change four, I've found another
But I can only think of you
I'd compare all he did
To all the things we'd do
Intermission, all can breathe
The lights have turned on in the house
Everybody meets backstage
Though in your presence I'm meek as a mouse
Begin act two, all is dark
And you are in my mind's spotlight
I'm doing everything to get you back
Not giving a damn 'bout what;s right
Scene change five, I call your phone
And start to count the rings
The fact that you answered shocked me the most
And I lost interest in all other things
Scene change six, to be continued later
Hopefully we're back to square one
I'd be so happy to be with you
"That's all folks!" we're done!

Call me Crazy

You left me without you,
And you never knew
That I was dying
Crying
Lying helpless in a daze
When you went away.
You refused to know me,
And you never became aware
That I was wearing away
Thinking about you
Wishing for you
Wondering what I did to make you leave.
You didn�t acknowledge me
And you never learned
That I would do anything for you
And treat you like a king.
I didn�t even know why
My love�s a crazy thing.
