When I opened your letter yesterday

I could not believe my eyes

'Cos I've already given all I have to give

And I think it must have slipped your mind

But I remember not so long ago

I gave it all, it's gone

And I gave it all to you

Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine



Oh, d'you hear me?

I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do.

No I cannot believe it's you, really you



Oh these people I'm talking to don't understand

They don't seem to realize

They're listening but they're not hearing me

They're being too cruel to be kind

Any kind of feeling that I had is gone

'Cos I gave it all, it's gone

And I gave it all to you

Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine



Oh, d'you hear me?

I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do.

No I cannot believe it's you, really you



Over and over I keep on telling myself

Over and over I hope I'm gonna make up

Over and over I know it's really happening

And there's nothing that I can say

'Cos nothing can change all the things that you've done to me

Nothing can make me stay



Oh, 'cos you know I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do

No I cannot believe it's you, really you



I know it's a crying shame, it's all the same to you

It seems all so well laid out but I cannot get through

Never meant it to show

It started happening, that's all you know.



Oh, I gave it all to you

Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine



Oh, d'you hear me?

I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do

No I cannot believe it's you, really you



Over and over I keep on telling myself

Over and over I Hope I'm gonna make up

But over and over I know it's really happening

And there's nothing that I can say

'Cos nothing can change all the things that you do to me

Nothing can make me stay



'Cos you know I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do

No I cannot believe it's you, really you
