Desperation's causing me
To question every single word you say
The distance that keeps growing in between us
Girl, just leaves me so afraid
Well, you tried so hard to carry on
But I can tell there's something wrong these days

Well, girl, I've got to know the truth
Just give it to me straight
Don't look away

Don't look away
Don't look away
When I ask you if you love me still
And if you're gonna stay
Don't look away

I've known you long enough to know
You try not to let your feelings show
Lately when I hold you near
I still feel I'm sitting here alone
This confusion sitting in your mind
Blocking all the words you mean to say

Well, girl, I've got to know the truth
Just give it to me straight
Don't look away

Don't look away
Don't look away
When I ask you if you love me still
And if you're gonna stay
Don't look away

Don't look away
Don't look away
Well, girl, I've got to know the truth
Just give it to me straight
Don't look away
When I ask you if you love me still
And if you're gonna stay
