Lyrics
Need I say I love you?
Expressing the need to convey love
Need I say I care?
Expressing the need to convey care
Need I say that emotion's
Questioning if emotions are not shared
Something we don't share?
Hinting at a lack of emotional connection
I don't want to be sitting here
Reluctance to deceive or hide feelings
Trying to deceive you
Avoiding deception in the relationship
'Cause you know I know baby
Acknowledging mutual understanding
That I don't wanna go
Expressing reluctance to leave
We cannot live together
Highlighting difficulty living together/apart
We cannot live apart
Describing the challenging situation
That's the situation
Long-standing awareness of the situation
I've known it from the start
Recognizing the inevitability of the situation
Every time that I look at you
Seeing the future in the partner's eyes
Well, I can see the future
Perceiving the future when looking at the partner
'Cause you know I know baby
Affirming reluctance to leave
That I don't wanna go
Reiterating the desire not to go
Just throwing it all away
Expressing the act of discarding everything
Throwing it all away
Repeating the act of throwing things away
Is there nothing that I can say
Questioning if anything can change the decision
To make you change your mind
Seeking a way to change the partner's mind
I watch the world go round and round
Observing the chaotic world and personal turmoil
And see mine turning upside down
Describing personal life in upheaval
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Repeating the act of throwing things away
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
-Throw it all away
-Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
-Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
-Now who will light up the darkness?
Pondering who will bring light to darkness
And who will hold your hand?
Questioning who will offer support
Who will find you the answers
Asking who will provide answers
When you don't understand?
Addressing a lack of understanding
Why should I have to be the one
Questioning the burden of convincing
Who has to convince you?
Expressing the unfairness of convincing
'Cause you know I know baby
Reiterating reluctance to leave
That I don't wanna go
Affirming the desire not to go
Someday you'll be sorry
Anticipating regret in the future
Someday when you're free
Predicting regret when free from the relationship
Memories will remind you
Memories serving as a reminder of love
That our love was meant to be
Stating that love was destined
But late at night, when you call my name
Imagining late-night calls echoing with regret
The only sound you'll hear
Highlighting the lonely sound of a voice
Is the sound of your voice calling
Emphasizing the voice calling after separation
Calling after me
Repeating the act of calling
Just throwing it all away
Repeating the act of throwing things away
Throwing it all away
-And there's nothing that I can say-ay-ay
-Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh (ah), ooh-ooh-ooh (ah)
-Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
-We're throwing it all away
-Ooh-ooh-ooh (ah), ooh-ooh-ooh (ah)
-Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
-Yes, we're throwing it all away
-Ooh-ooh-ooh (ah), ooh-ooh-ooh (ah)
-Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
-Yes, we're throwing it all away
-Ooh-ooh-ooh (ah), ooh-ooh-ooh (ah)
-Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
