Text: Justin Hayward. It's Not On.
Beyond the tears
Behind her eyes
She feels the need
To rationalize
To catch the thought
That can't be caught
And hold it for a while
Beyond the fears
Behind her lies
She sees the truth
But still she tries
To hold on fast
To dreams that last
No longer than a smile
It's not on
Too much has come between us
Too much has gone
And in our hearts we both know
That it's just not on
The feeling's gone
And in our hearts
We both know
That it's just not on
It's funny how
As time goes by
Some feelings grow
While others die
But who are we
To disagree
With what our hearts dictate
And only fools
Who dare ignore
The empty hours
That lie in store
For those who strive
To keep alive
Too little love too late
It's not on
Too much has come between us
Too much has gone
And in our hearts we both know
That it's just not on
The feeling's gone
And in our hearts
We both know
That it's just not on
No it's just not on
Behind her eyes
She feels the need
To rationalize
To catch the thought
That can't be caught
And hold it for a while
Beyond the fears
Behind her lies
She sees the truth
But still she tries
To hold on fast
To dreams that last
No longer than a smile
It's not on
Too much has come between us
Too much has gone
And in our hearts we both know
That it's just not on
The feeling's gone
And in our hearts
We both know
That it's just not on
It's funny how
As time goes by
Some feelings grow
While others die
But who are we
To disagree
With what our hearts dictate
And only fools
Who dare ignore
The empty hours
That lie in store
For those who strive
To keep alive
Too little love too late
It's not on
Too much has come between us
Too much has gone
And in our hearts we both know
That it's just not on
The feeling's gone
And in our hearts
We both know
That it's just not on
No it's just not on
