Well, I built you up
To be something that you were not
Something too good, something bright,
Something too perfect, too right
Goodnight, now you're running out of Sight, goodnight
Say it once again
I built you up to be something you were not
Someone too good, too perfect, too right, goodnight
Now these tears are out of sight
But once again you bring the summer rain
It hurts much less this way
You always, you always seem to say
You always seem to say
Then bring the summer rain
Feels like we're not meant to be two
But when I'm with you it feels like just
You and me (in a happy tree)
The waves of love around our beings
The energy, the summer rain
Well it didn't seem to smile on us those days
Now it seemed to smile on us those days
Distances make worlds so small
I built you up to be something you were not
Someone too good, too perfect, too right, goodnight
Now these tears are out of sight
But once again you bring the summer rain
It hurts much less this way
You always, you always seem to say
You always seem to say
Then bring the summer rain
Like a friend, like a friend in a new
Lover (like a friend)
Like a friend, where's the friend in my
New lover (like a friend)
Like a friend in my new lover, my
Love grown fond of you
But I know there ain't a damn thing I can do
Everyday I've thought of you
Everyday, everyday, everyday I call
Then we try to walk but then we fall
Every step I seem to take and go
Without you it's just an empty wall
