Why turn away? Why turn away?
Look this way, look this way.
Don't inflict this pain, not at first,
Why turn away?
A glimpse offered, then the heart you stole,
A glimpse offered, then the heart you stole,
And in its place, a wound you let unroll,
And in its place, a wound you let unroll.
Upon meeting eyes, what cruel play,
Upon meeting eyes, what cruel play.
This kindness you showed at the start,
Why turn away? Why turn away?
Look this way, look this way.
Don't inflict this pain, not at first,
Why turn away?
To steal the heart and then torment, unkind,
To steal the heart and then torment, unkind,
To cast down from your sight, it's not right,
To cast down from your sight, it's not right.
In this world of love, we have begun,
In this world of love, we have begun,
To walk this path, at the very first sign,
Why turn away? Why turn away?
Look this way, look this way.
Don't inflict this pain, not at first,
Why turn away?
