it's there all the time, always in mind
can't sleep anymore at night
I can't get it straight, can't concentrate
try and forget
wound like a watch, tight as a spring
lately, always uptight
laying awake, try and forget
all night
this is the thing that can keep me alive
I have found what I need if only to survive
I won't leave it behind, no, I still can't let go
I have seen in my mind
and the picture is too hard to forget
yeah, too hard to forget
not to win, not to lose it, not to happen, not to be
I cannot understand it and I just can't see
why is this so important to me? locked in my memory
I can't reason it out, I can't figure just why
but I know I've always had it there inside
and I can't shut it out, can't shut it out at all
this is the thing that can keep me alive
I have found what I need if only to survive
I won't leave it behind, no I still can't let go
I've seen in my mind
and the picture is too hard to forget
yeah, too hard to forget
it's there all the time, always in mind
can't sleep anymore at night
I can't get it straight, can't concentrate
try and forget
wound like a watch, tight as a spring
lately, always uptight
ls I lay there awake and I try to forget
all night
this is the thing that can keep me alive
I have found what I need if only to survive
I refuse to accept that it just cannot be
I won't leave it alone just to die, can't you see
all my life I have searched for the key to my dreams
and this instinct of fate's driving me to extremes
'cause the picture I get is just too hard to forget
I have seen in my heart
and the picture is too hard to forget
yeah, too hard to forget
it's too hard to forget
oh, I've seen in my heart, in my mind
it's the picture I see
it's the picture I see
it's too hard, yeah, it's too hard to forget
