I can stand but I don't walk
I can speak but I don't talk
I could leave but I don't move
I just smile and I excuse
I just wait for your excuse
And I recognize this scene
It's where you return to me
And I just close my eyes
Then hope that this is the last time
But then it happens again
And I forgive you again
Just please don't do this again
To me
Chorus
But it happens…
Again and again and again and again and again, again
Again and again and again... Oh
Again and again and again and again and again, again
Again and again and again
It happens again... To me
I can see but I am blind
I can seek but I don't hide
There's a choice that I won't choose
I don't bet so
I don't lose
And I recognize this theme
One part forgiveness, one part need
It's a blank and blinding stare
Pretending I don't even care.
That it happened again
And I forgive you again
Just please don't do this again
To me
Chorus
But it happens…
Again and again and again and again and again, again
Again and again and again... Oh
Again and again and again and again and again, again
Again and again and again
It happens again... To me
I can stand but I don't walk
I can speak but I don't talk
I can leave but I don't move
I just wait for your excuse
But it happened again
So I'll forgive you again
Just please don't do this again
I shouldn't do this again
Chorus
But it happens…
Again and again and again and again and again, again
Again and again and again... Oh
Again and again and again and again and again, again
Again and again and again
It happens again... To me
