That first day Was the first day of my life And ever since then I've had this feeling that I can't describe And, yes, I've sold my soul But you can't say no You tell me that you can't compete But you don't have to, not for me And maybe I could get it right this time But if I don't, please understand Just to why I wouldn't hold your hand It's 'cause I couldn't see you past Your eyes Couldn't see all the writing on the wall And I guess that's what led to Three months without a single call And, yes, I've sold my soul But you can't say no You tell me that you can't compete But you don't have to, not for me And maybe I could get it right this time But if I don't, please understand Just to why I wouldn't hold your hand It's 'cause I couldn't see you past Your eyes You tell me that you can't compete But you don't have to, not for me And maybe I could get it right this time But if I don't, please understand Just to why I wouldn't hold your hand It's 'cause I couldn't see you past Your eyes
