One good bye and the world that I knew

Just slips away and dares me to forget it

I know my heart will heal one day if memories will let it

It hurts when everything reminds me of you

So to protect myself, what else can I do?

I think of the sun, I think of the rain

I'll count the shadows on the wall, so I won't feel the pain

'Cause if I think of you, my strength will be gone

So I'll do anything at all, so tears won't fall

How I try never to slip and speak your name

It would come so easy

That would just stir the fire again that I swore was cold inside me

I almost loved you, but I stopped just in time

If I'm to save myself, you can't cross my mind

I think of the sun, I think of the rain

I'll count the shadows on the wall, so I won't feel the pain

'Cause if I think of you, my strength will be gone

I'll do anything at all, so tears won't fall

If my thoughts would let you through

You'd find your way back somehow

That's not what I need right now

So to protect myself

I think of the sun, I think of the rain

I'll count the shadows on the wall, so I won't feel the pain

'Cause if I think of you, my strength will be gone

So I'll do anything at all

Yes I'll do anything at all, so tears won't fall
