Lyrics

Camouflage

I remember so many nights in the bed alone
Wondering could I muster the strength to exist in the bitter cold
But you showed up once in a while, I guess that's alright
Cause I told my heart that you needed time for yourself, it's fine

I camouflage my tears
And you wear your disguise
And round I go
To know that you still love me

I need to know, say that you do
(To know if you still love me)
I need to know, say that you do
(Please)

Weary sometimes when I tried to discern our reality
Wish that I just could be somebody else if you talked to me
Kept praying inside, let him love me for who I am
Please, my Lord
But you were just somewhere that I couldn't reach, couldn't understand

I camouflage my tears
And you wear your disguise
And round I go
To know if you still love me

I need to know, say that you do
(To know if you still love me)
I need to know, say that you do

Didn't we swear we'd give each other everything?
(I shouldn't hold in on love)
Didn't I give you all of me?
No, not a day goes by
When I don't wonder inside
If you feel the way you used to feel
I camouflage my tears
And you wear your disguise
And round and round I go

I need to know, say that you do
I need to know, say that you do
(That's all I really wanted)
I need to know, say that you do
(That's all I really wanted)
I need to know, say that you do
(Was to know)

I need to know you still love me, tell me you love me
Say it
I camouflage
I cry and cry as you laugh and laugh at the question
But I need to know
