Still I cling to you lyrics

I know the signs, I read the warnings

To you, I'm only time to kill

Don't mean a thing to you

Yet, still I cling to you

Like meadow mist on winter mornings

Like snow upon the highest hill

That's how I cling to you

Somehow, I cling to you

If I were wiser I would leave you (aa-ohh)

Pick up my broken pride and steal away

What is this game you play

You weave a chain to bind and hold me

Yet, keep yourself one step beyond me

So near, so far away (uuhh uhhh)

I tell myself, you'll come to love me

As flowers come alive in Spring

And still I cling to you

At times you want my adoration (uu-uuhh uhh)

You talk of love, of life reborn (uu-uuhh uhh uh)

My soul takes wings to you (uu-uuhh uh uh)

And so, I cling to you (uu-uuhh uhh uh)

At times you mock my desperation

My eagerness, you laugh, you scold

Despite the things you do

In rage I cling to you

Is it just pity you are feeling (aa-oohh)

These crumbs of comfort that you throw my way

How long can hope survive

How long must this despair continue

If you're so sure, I'll never win you

Why keep my hope alive?

You do not hear the song I sing you

You do not take the gift I bring

Yet still I sing to you

Still I cling to you
