I've known so long what's going on
Behind your smiling eyes
But I don't leave, 'cause all my pride is gone
It's not that you're deceiving me
With all your pretty lies
Baby, half a love is better than none
You don't know what it means to live
In dreams you know have died
Or share love you don't dare to leave alone
But I have found my pride has drowned
In tears I had to hide
And baby, half a love is better than none
Half the time, I know that I should leave
But I just can't convince myself to go
'Cause I know when passion's flame
Has died in shame, you'll find your way back home
And baby, half a love is better than none
And baby, half a love is better than none
