For the Sake of the Song - Azure Ray

Why does she sing these

Sad songs for me I'm not the one

To tenderly bring her

Soft sympathy I've just begun

To see my way clear

It's plain if I stop I will fall

I can lay down a tear for

Her pain a tear and that's all

What does she want me to do

She says she

Knows moments are rare

I suppose that it's true

And on she goes to say

I don't care when she knows that I do

Well maybe she just has

To sing for the sake of the song

And who do I think that

I am to decide that she's wrong

She'd like to think I was cruel

She knows that's a lie for I would be

No more than a tool

If I allowed her to cry all over me

Oh my sorrow is real

Even though I can't change my plans

If she could see how

I feel then I know she'd understand

Does she actually think I'm to blame

Does she really believe

That some word of mine

Could relieve all her pain

Can't she see that

She grieves just because

She's been blindly deceived

By her shame

Well maybe she just has to

Sing for the sake of the song

And who do I think that

I am to decide that she's wrong

I know nothings what

It seems maybe one day she'll start to realize

That if she abandons her dreams

Then all the words she can say are only lies

When will she see that

The gain is only to lose

All that she offers me

Are her chains and I got to refuse

But it's only to herself that she's lied

She likes to pretend

It's something that she should defend with her pride

And I don't intend to stand here

And be the friend from whom she must hide

Well maybe she just has to sing

For the sake of the song

And who do I think that

I am to decide that she's wrong

Well maybe she just has to sing

For the sake of the song
