You touched my life

with your softness in the night

my wish was your command

until you ran out of love

i tell myself i'm free

got the chance of livin' just for me

no need to hurry home

now that you're gone

knife

cuts like a knife

how will i ever heal

i'm so deeply wounded

knife

cuts like a knife

you cut away the heart of my life

when i pretend

wear a smile to fool my dearest friends

i wonder if they know

it's just a show

i'm on a stage

day and night i go through my charades

but how can i disguise

what's in my eyes

knife

cuts like a knife

how will i ever heal

i'm so deeply wounded

knife

cuts like a knife

you cut away the heart of my life

oh oh

oh oh oh oh

oh oh oh oh

oh

i've tried and tried

blocking out the pain i feel inside

the pain of wanting you

wanting you

knife

cuts like a knife

how will i ever heal

i'm so deeply wounded

knife

cuts like a knife

how will i ever heal

i'm so deeply wounded

you cut away the heart

of my life
