Sweet Agony

Love is sweet agony
When you find it where it shouldn't be
Many lonely nights you'll pace the floor
As your heart and mind play tug of war
And you must wear a disguise
Never look into her eyes
Oh you'd be a fool if you tried

The whirlwinds of reality
Fan the flames of fantasy
If you take a stand you'll take a fall
It really makes no sense at all
Only one thing is clear
Whenever she's near
Everything else just disappears
And it's a shame. A shame, shame, shame
It's a shame. A shame, shame, shame

Love is a tragedy
When the heart is bound to secrecy
You can't let on what you feel inside
That yearning you must always hide
And there are things you want to say
You want to look at her all day
But you must keep her
In the corner of your eye
And it's a shame. A shame, shame, shame
It's a shame. A shame, shame, shame

If you can hold on to your sanity
And deny this love that can never be
It's sure to go away in time
This could be the perfect crime
Then you'll gather up the parts
Of a sad, broken heart
And leave that sweet agony behind
And it's a shame. A shame, shame, shame
It's a shame. A shame, shame, shame
