Face in the Crowd Lyrics

God knows it cuts like a dagger
But you think your heart doesn′t matter
'Cause I do, yeah, I do
I know we burned like a phoenix
But I didn′t want to believe it
'Cause I knew, that it's true

I didn′t want to let you down
Saying this is all that I want
It′s everything I dreamed of
I didn't want to let you down, so I said I could give you up
Thinking back on all that I′ve done
Ended every road that I'm on
A part of me has never stopped looking for your face in a crowd

God knows that I want to believe that you were the love that I needed
But it′s lost, and all 'cause

I didn′t want to let you down
Saying this is all that you want
It's everything you've dreamed of
I didn′t want to let you down, so I said I could give you up
Thinking back on everything that I′ve done
Ended every stage I'm on
A part of me has never stopped looking for your face in a crowd

In a crowd
In a crowd
In a crowd
In a crowd
Ooh-ooh-ooh

I didn′t want to let you down
Saying you're all that I want
You′re everything that I've dreamed of
I didn′t want to let you down, so I said I could give you up
Thinking back on all that I've done
How did I get it so wrong?
A part of me will never stop looking for your face

Every airport, sidewalk, new train that I board
A part of me will always be waiting for your face in the crowd
