Story Behind the Song
Originally written in the 2nd person but some of the feedback I was getting was they felt it was a preaching song. I changed to 3rd person to avoid this reaction and to focus on how the character song was feeling passionless love.
Lyrics
Stop, look around
What is she doing now?
Who is she?
Where has her love gone?
Where did it go wrong?
It’s not a dream
Facing a stranger
In a room she lays pretending
Close her eyes she starts revealing
Making love she feels the pleasure
But no sign of love
She lies, she cries, she hides inside
Thinking about the danger
Sleeping with a stranger
She gives, they take, she’s losing faith
She’s keeping empty feelings deep down inside
Look into their eyes what does she see?
She asks herself, what do they want from me?
She’s cold inside, she’s left all emotions
Behind
Stop, look around
Where is she going now?
Tell the truth
Searching for true love
Why did she give up?
Who will she trust
With all her feelings?
All her life she’s been alone now
Wants someone to care for her now
She knows they don’t, so she pretends
And she plays the part
Don’t hold, don’t care, don’t shed a tear
Can’t tell them how she’s feeling
Sleeping with a stranger
She don’t, ask why, she just gets by
She stays until someone’s satisfied
The pleasures there but no passion in between
She’ll kiss and touch but there is no meaning
So when she’s done there’s nothing to hold
Onto
She lies, she cries, she hides inside
Thinking about the danger
Sleeping with a stranger
She gives, they take, she’s losing faith
She’s keeping empty feelings deep down inside
Look into their eyes what does she see?
She asks herself, what do they want from me?
She’s cold inside, she’s left all emotions
Behind
