Happiest girl i ever knew
Happiest girl i ever knew

Wanted to feel the joy
Flow between our lips
Wanted to feel the joy
Flow between our hips

Happiest girl i ever knew
Why do you smile the smile you do

Happiest girl i ever knew
Happiest girl i ever knew

Wanted to feel the joy
Pass between our eyes
Wanted to feel the joy
Pass between our thighs

And i would have to pinch her
Just to see that she was real
Just to watch the smile fade away
See the pain she'd feel

Happiest girl i ever knew
Happiest girl i ever knew

Wanted to feel her joy
Feel it deep within
Wanted to feel her joy
Penetrate my skin

Happiest girl i ever knew
Why do you smile the smile you do

You had something to hide
Should have hidden it, shouldn't you
Now you're not satisfied
With what you're being put through

It's just time to pay the price
For not listening to advice
And deciding in your youth
On the policy of truth

Things could be so different now
It used to be so civilised
You will always wonder how
It could have been if you'd only lied

It's too late to change events
It's time to face the consequence
For delivering the proof
In the policy of truth

Never again
Is what you swore
The time before
Never again
Is what you swore
The time before

Now you're standing there tongue tied
You'd better learn your lesson well
Hide what you have to hide
And tell what you have to tell
You'll see your problems multiplied
If you continually decide
To faithfully pursue
The policy of truth

Never again
Is what you swore
The time before

I heard it from my friends
About the things you said
I heard it from my friends
About the things you said

But they know me better than that
They know me better than that

They know my weaknesses
I never tried to hide them
They know my weaknesses
I never denied them

I heard it from my friends
About the things you said
I heard it from my friends
About the things you said

How can a view become so twisted
How can a view become so twisted

They know my weaknesses
I never tried to hide them
They know my weaknesses
You tried them

I get so carried away
You brought me down to earth
I thought we had something precious
Now i know what it's worth

I heard it from my friends
About the things you said
I heard it from my friends
About the things you said

I've never felt so disappointed
Never felt so disappointed

They know my weaknesses
I never tried to hide them
They know my weaknesses
Thought that you liked them

They know me better than that

All i want to do is see you again
Is that too much to ask for?
I just want to see your sweet smile
Smiled the way it was before

Well i'll try not to hold you
And i'll try not to kiss you
And i won't even touch you

All i want to do is see you
Don't you know that it's true

I remember the days when we'd walk through the woods
And sit on a bench for a while
I treasure the way we used to laugh and play
And look in each others eyes

You can keep me at a distance if you don't trust my resistance
But i swear i won't touch you

All i want to do is see you
Don't you know that it's true

Well i know five years is a long time
And that times change (oh that times change)
But i think that you will find
People are basically the same (basically the same)

If the water's still flowing, we can go for a swim
And do the things we used to do
And if i'm reluctant you can pull me in
And we can relive our youth

Oh but we'll stay friendly like sister and brother
Though i think i still love you
All i want to do is see you
Don't you know that it's true?

People are people so why should it be
You and i should get along so awfully

So we're different colours
And we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me
Though i've done nothing wrong
I never even met you
So what could i have done

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

People are people so why should it be
You and i should get along so awfully

Help me understand

Now you're punching and you're kicking
And you're shouting at me
I'm relying on your common decency
So far it hasn't surfaced
But i'm sure it exists
It just takes a while to travel
From your head to your fist

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man

Help me understand
