I remember how you used to wait by the phone   Counting every minute that I was gone   And you used to call me sweet things in the morning light   After you would hug me so tender   Each and every night   Lately you got so much to do   And your never at home   By the time I get to see you   You need your time alone   I've been too afraid to ask you   But I need to know      Chorus:   Is this the way love goes   Say it isn't so   Is this the way love goes   Right before my eyes   Wearing a disguise   I need to know   Is this the way love goes      Staring at a photograph of you and I inframed   When I blink my eyes you start to fade away   Oh, i recall that day in fall and all the things you said   All of the promises that you never kept   Lately you got so much to do   And you're never at home   When I finally get to see you   You need you're time alone   I've been too afraid to ask you   But I need to know      Chorus      Bridge:   Everybody needs to a love they can count on   I'm the kind of man who needs to know exactly where I stand      Vamp:   Stayin' up late at night I'm wondering   How we can make it right   Never gonna say goodbye   I'm crying   Find a way to make it right      Vamp 2X
