Throwing It All Away Lyrics

Need I say I love you?
Need I say I care?
Need I say that emotion's
Something we don't share?
I don't want to be sitting here
Trying to deceive you
'Cause you know I know baby
That I don't wanna go

We cannot live together
We cannot live apart
That's the situation
I've known it from the start
Every time that I look at you
Well, I can see the future
'Cause you know I know baby
That I don't wanna go

Just throwing it all away
Throwing it all away
Is there nothing that I can say
To make you change your mind
I watch the world go round and round
And see mine turning upside down

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Throw it all away
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Now who will light up the darkness?
And who will hold your hand?
Who will find you the answers
When you don't understand?
Why should I have to be the one
Who has to convince you?
'Cause you know I know baby
That I don't wanna go

Someday you'll be sorry
Someday when you're free
Memories will remind you
That our love was meant to be
But late at night, when you call my name
The only sound you'll hear
Is the sound of your voice calling
Calling after me

Just throwing it all away
Throwing it all away
And there's nothing that I can say-ay-ay

Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh (ah), ooh-ooh-ooh (ah)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
We're throwing it all away
Ooh-ooh-ooh (ah), ooh-ooh-ooh (ah)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Yes, we're throwing it all away
Ooh-ooh-ooh (ah), ooh-ooh-ooh (ah)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Yes, we're throwing it all away
Ooh-ooh-ooh (ah), ooh-ooh-ooh (ah)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
