I came across your face the other day.
In a picture time and space seem to fade away.
But I don't need a thousand words to say,
Why you couldn't make me stay.
How many times did you hear me say to you,
That I would be there forever and day?
Still you cried your eyes out till your face turned blue.
What else could I say?
You make me sick.
You make me sick.
You make me sick.
Look, I remember just like yesterday.
Was it fiction, War and Peace,
Or just three words to say?
Now your hearts a thousand worlds away.
I lost mine along the way.
I made up my mind that I could never give to you,
What you needed to get you through the day.
But how long did it take you to find someone new?
I was so easily replaced.
You make me sick.
You make me sick.
You make me sick.
Even after all this time,
I can't believe I ever thought you were the one.
'Is the love you make equal to the love you take'?
'Cause I gave you everything under the sun.
Whose sorry now we can't work it out somehow?
After all is said and done...
You make me sick.
You make me sick.
You make me sick.
Even after all this time,
I can't believe I ever thought you were the one.
You make me sick.
