It sure gets quiet
When the kids go to bed
We sit here in the silence
Putting off what must be said
I read a book, you watch TV
As our love dies quietly
I'm so sad I don't know what I just read

Somebody should leave
But which one should it be
You need the kids and they need me
Somebody should leave
But we hate to give in
We keep hoping somehow we might need each other again

You say goodnight and turn and face the wall
We lie here in the darkness and the tears start to fall
If it was only you and me goodbye might come more easily
But what about those babies down the hall

Somebody should leave
But which one should it be
You need the kids and they need me
Somebody should leave
But we hate to give in
We keep hoping somehow we might need each other again

Somebody should leave
But we hate to give in
We just keep hoping we might need each other again

I would have waited forever
If i'd known that you'd be here
We could have shared our lives together
And held each other close all through the years
But i've met someone before you
And my heart just couldn't wait
So no matter how much i adore you
I've got to stand behind the promise that i made

Chorus:
Where were you
When i could have loved you
Where were you
When i gave my heart away
All my life i've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late
You came along one promise too late

I won't say that i'm sorry that i met you
I can't have you but i never will forget you

Repeat chorus x2

Ay, ay...No lloren mas,
No dejen que les envuelva la oscuridad,
Ay, ay...Con compasi?n,
Oigan que yo busco la amistad,
No dejen que les envuelva, envuelva la oscuridad.

Ay, ay... La luz esta,
Adentro de la gente, con la unidad,
Ay, ay...No buscan mas
Adentro de ti mismo,
No hay ilusi?n,
No dejen que les envuelva la oscuridad

S?gale que s?gale que s?guele te llama,
S?guele que s?guele

Palante palante...

Ay, ay...Que siguen palante,
No dejen que los pare,
En este instante,
Ay, ay...en la luz nos dieren
Hacen labor m?a universal
No dejen que les Envuelva La oscuridad...

We lie in the dark
I know you're awake
The only sounds are the sounds this old house makes
Oh how I long, I long to hear your voice

Desperate to talk
Yearning to touch
Burning inside cause I want you so much
So I say, I need you
And leave you no choice

[chorus]
You lie
You don't wanna hurt me, so you lie
Buy a little time
And I go along, what else I can do
Maybe it's wrong
But you know how much I love you
So you lie
Till you can find a way to say goodbye
You lie

How long until
You just can't go on
And the urge to break loose is just too strong
You should let go, if that's what you wanna do
Oh, but you don't know
If it's the right thing to do

[chorus]

You lie
Oh you lie
Oh you lie
