lyrics

Faces that I have seen somewhere still haunt me;
they bear the traces of and lines indicate where they've been.
I have seen faces that show they've been tossed about, bitten
and scarred by the wind.
So why be hard? You've had it easy. You bear no scars. Why should it hurt just to please me?
I want to see a love with no boundaries between you and me so that we don't end up like the Faces. Faces so bitter and cold stir my memory,
they turned their backs on friendship and just walked away.
I have seen faces so tensed up and tightened,
they don't hear a word that I say.
So why be cruel it's so detrimental. Don't be a fool.
Who could it hurt to be gentle?
I want to see a love with no boundaries between you and me
so that we don't end up like the faces.
Faces that I have seen somewhere are smiling and laughing away their trouble, their grief, and their care.
I have seen faces so loving and open, always willing to share.
So why can't I teach you to trust me?
Faces that lie will never find truth or beauty.
If there can be a love with no boundaries between you and me,
maybe we can decide our own faces.
