I Cannot Believe Its True - Lyrics by Phil Collins


Lyrics
When I opened your letter yesterday
\r
I could not believe my eyes
\r
'Cos I've already given all I have to give
\r
And I think it must have slipped your mind
\r
But I remember not so long ago
\r
I gave it all, it's gone
\r
And I gave it all to you
\r
Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine
\r

\r
Oh, d'you hear me?
\r
I cannot believe it's true
\r
Are you really doing the things you do.
\r
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
\r

\r
Oh these people I'm talking to don't understand
\r
They don't seem to realize
\r
They're listening but they're not hearing me
\r
They're being too cruel to be kind
\r
Any kind of feeling that I had is gone
\r
'Cos I gave it all, it's gone
\r
And I gave it all to you
\r
Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine
\r

\r
Oh, d'you hear me?
\r
I cannot believe it's true
\r
Are you really doing the things you do.
\r
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
\r

\r
Over and over I keep on telling myself
\r
Over and over I hope I'm gonna make up
\r
Over and over I know it's really happening
\r
And there's nothing that I can say
\r
'Cos nothing can change all the things that you've done to me
\r
Nothing can make me stay
\r

\r
Oh, 'cos you know I cannot believe it's true
\r
Are you really doing the things you do
\r
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
\r

\r
I know it's a crying shame, it's all the same to you
\r
It seems all so well laid out but I cannot get through
\r
Never meant it to show
\r
It started happening, that's all you know.
\r

\r
Oh, I gave it all to you
\r
Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine
\r

\r
Oh, d'you hear me?
\r
I cannot believe it's true
\r
Are you really doing the things you do
\r
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
\r

\r
Over and over I keep on telling myself
\r
Over and over I Hope I'm gonna make up
\r
But over and over I know it's really happening
\r
And there's nothing that I can say
\r
'Cos nothing can change all the things that you do to me
\r
Nothing can make me stay
\r

\r
'Cos you know I cannot believe it's true
\r
Are you really doing the things you do
\r
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
\r
\r
