The Enemy Songtext
von Peter Cox

THE ENEMY


Don′t you think I feel you retreating
Right there in your kiss?
You can see that we're onto something here
But still you resist
Maybe you think I wanna shoot you down
And that′s why you're running away
But you must believe that.
I'm not the enemy
Don′t be afraid of me
I′d never hurt you, no
I want you to believe that
I'm not the enemy.
Who made you so scared to surrender
Some ghost from your past?
Someone who said you two were forever
Just some guy talking fast
So now you think you′ve heard it all before
The same confection of lies
But you must believe that.
I'm not the enemy
Don′t be afraid of me
I'd never hurt you, no
I want you to believe that
I′m not the enemy.
Whenever you're close to letting go
You run and you hide
What can I do to let you know
I'm on your side?
I′m not the enemy
But I could be a real good friend
You don′t wanna get hurt again
And I can understand it
Don't wait for me to shoot you down
′Cause I don't wanna fool around
With the good thing I have found in you
So if you think I wanna break your heart
Then you don′t know me at all.
I'm not the enemy
Don′t be afraid of me
I'd never hurt you, no
I want you to believe that
I'm not the enemy.
