about

Oriental orchestral electro track

lyrics

Don't you doubt me
You'll have to live without me
There's every reason I may be gone tomorrow
Did you love me
Like you should have?
Did you see my signs of sorrow?
Some days are weary
Even while the sun is shining
I carry on for you
But for how much longer?

There were rumours
Chinese Whispers
Just what it was that that boy was hiding?
He had a dream
Forever out of reach
But that didn't stop him trying

Don't you doubt me
I just know you'll miss me
Somedays I lack the strength and
My humour deserts me
Did you give me
The chance I needed
To ensure the gift I had
Wasn't wasted

I try so hard
I keep on fighting
Armed with symphonies
I can't stop writing
But no-one wants them
No-one needs them
Seems I sing for no reason.

There were rumours
Chinese whispers
He's going to leave us sooner or later
He had a passion
That was never realised
But no-one knew how that ate him inside.

Don't you doubt me
You'll have to live without me
There's every reason I may be gone tomorrow
Did you love me
Like you should have
Did you see my signs of sorrow

There were rumours
Chinese whispers
Just what it was that that boy was hiding?
He had a dream
Forever out of reach
But that didn't stop him trying

There were rumours
Chinese whispers
He's going to leave us sooner or later...
