Flaws of Love

Whenever I feel like just giving up 
Whenever my dreams just fade away 
I just return to my heart 
Because I know that I'll find comfort there 
And when the world is closing in 
Hope comes and saves me once again
Well there's never been a boy who’s luckier
Lost in the ocean of broken dreams 
Well there's never been a more grateful man 
Though I don't show it a lot 
I know what I got with you is lost 
And if there's a storm that's closing in 
You use to push it away 
You use to understand 
And I'd do anything just to please your dreams 
You use to do anything 
Just to know that I can hold on to you

Well you know every time I look 
At that expression printed on the page 
I think I hear you, whispering the magic 
And the compliments I need so badly 
Now I've been running circles 
Around the notion that you'd find me baby
One day maybe, 
But all the physic powers of suggestion 
I've been sending your way, so can't you hear me say? 
I want your arms all around me, 
I want your face, all around me, 
I want your perfume, all around me, 
I love the way you smile
Love can move some one to a place inside the heart
I thought I'd change my opinion again
But you moved me in a way that I've never known
You abused me in a way that I've never known.
When the madness stops then you will be alone
So you're the kind who deals with the games in the mind
You confuse me in a way that I've never known.
You just keep me contemplating, 
That your soul is slowly fading
I used to move you in a way that you've never known
Then I accused you in a way that you've never known
But you hurt me in a way never known
Listen Baby
Infidelity is a Flaw of Love 
When the madness stops then you will be alone
