[Verse 1]

            
I've hardly be

          
en outside my 

        
room in days,
              
'cause i don't

            
 feel that i d

          
eserve the sun

        
shine's rays.
             
The darkness h

             
elped until th

          
e whiskey wore

  
 away,
              
It was then I 

            
realised the c

          
onscience neve

       
r fades.
            
When you're yo

              
ung you have t

          
his image of y

    
our life,
              
that you'll be

            
 scrupulous an

          
d one day even

        
 make a wife.
              
And you'll mak

            
e boundaries y

          
ou never dream

    
 to cross,
            
and if you hap

           
pen to you wak

#            
e completely l

ost.


[Bridge]

             
But I will fig

       
ht for you,
           
be sure that i

til we're the 

           
special two on

       
ce again.


[Chorus]

            
And we will on

             
ly need each o

             
ther we'll ble

              
ed together, o

  
ur hands will 

not be 
            
taught to hold

 
 another's,
              
'Cause we're t

        
he special two

.
            
And we could o

             
nly see each o

             
ther, we'll br

              
eathe together

       
, these arms w

[Verse 2]

            
I remember som

          
eone old once 

        
said to me,
              
that 'lies wil

            
l lock you up 

          
with truth the

        
 only key'.
            
But I was comf

             
ortable and wa

/          
rm inside my s

hell,
            
and couldn't s

              
ee this place 

          
could soon bec

    
ome my hell.
              
So is it bette

            
r to tell and 

          
hurt or lie to

            
 save their fa

ce?
              
Well i guess t

            
he answer is d

          
on't do it in 

    
the first plac

e.
              
I know i'm not

            
 deserving of 

          
your trust fro

            
m you right no

w,
              
Oh, but if by 

            
chance you cha

             
nge your mind 

          
you know i wil

            
l not let you 

 
down
              
'Cause we were

            
 the special t

             
wo, and will b

     
e again.


[Chorus]

            
And we will on

             
ly need each o

             
ther we'll ble

              
ed together, o

    
ur hands will 

not be 
            
taught to hold

 
 another's,
              
'Cause we're t

.
            
And we could o

             
nly see each o

, these arms w

ill

r's,
              
'Cause we're t

            
he special two

 
.
      
            
I step outside

             
 my minds eye'

          
s for a minute
              
And i look ove

            
r me like a do

             
ctor looking f

              
or disease or 

 
something 

that could ease the pain.
            
But nothing cu

             
res the hurt y

ou,
           
Bring on by yo

  
urself,
              
Just rememberi

             
ng, just remem

              
bering how we 

   
were


[Final Chorus]


            
And we will on

             
ly need each o
