Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How many times will I keep getting cut wide open?
Say that you love me tonight even if you don't
And how many times will I keep getting told I'm hopeless?
Let me believe that you will, even if you won't
[Chorus]
I know how to cry
And I know how to lie
And I know how to hurt
Been doing it all my life
Please don't bring me down
'Cause I just want to fly
Where dreams don't die
[Verse 2]
How many dreams have I seen burn up like ashes?
Smoke from a million memories in my eyes
Singing a song of a love that never lasted
One look at you and I remember why
[Chorus]
I know how to cry
And I know how to lie
And I know how to hurt
Been doing it all my life
Please don't bring me down
I just want to fly
Where dreams don't die
Where dreams don't die
[Chorus]
And I know how to cry
Oh, I know how to lie
And I know how to hurt
Been doing it all my life
Please don't bring me down
I just want to fly
Where dreams don't die
Where dreams don't die
