November Rain

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darling when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same?

'Cause nothing lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain...

We've been through this such a long, long time
Just trying to kill the pain
But lovers alway come and lovers always go
And no one's really sure who's letting go today
Walking away

If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head, just knowing that you were mine
So darling if you want to love me
Then darling don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walking in the cold November rain...

Do you need some time on your own?
Do you need some time all alone?
Everybody needs some time on their own
Don't you know you need some time all alone?

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you?

And when your fears subside and shadows still remain
I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness, we still can find a way
'Cause nothing lasts forever - not even cold November rain...

Don't you think that you need somebody?
Don't you think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one...
