Point Of View

I'm too aware that I'm dying
You show me I'm alive
I'm always scared, always frightened
You're waiting patient on the other side
I mourn too much the loss of childhood
I see its wonder in your eyes
And I give up much more than I should
You say, "But baby, you always try"

And I hate to make it all about me

But I don't know love from any other point of view (it's you, it's you)
I hope you feel love, you feel it in the way I do (do you, do you?)
And since we all make many promises, babe, that might not be true
Tell me 'bout love from any other point of view

When you cry, I am aching
When you're happy, I'm a bird
And I'll admit I've been the teacher
What a gift, that you let me learn

Are all my love songs all about me?

Well, I don't know love from any other point of view (it's you, it's you)
I hope you feel love, you feel it in the way I do (do you, do you?)
And since we all make many promises, babe, that might not be true
Tell me 'bout love from any other point of view

Like you, like you
Your point of view
Your point of view, your point of view
I wish you could be me, and I could be you
Just for a day, for an afternoon
Since I can't show you, you can't see just what I do
I'll tell you, I'll tell you the truth, ooh

It's in love from any other point of view (of view, of view)
I hope you feel love, you feel it in the way I do (do you, do you?)
And since we all make many promises, babe, that might not be true
Tell me 'bout love from your point of view

Your point of view, mm
