Ocean Lyrics by The Cure

Join the Dots: B-Sides & Rarities (Disc 3: 1992-1996)

1996

[Verse]
I don't think I'm any closer now than I was at fifteen
I still don't know what I really want or how I really feel
Sometimes I think I've seen too much, sometimes nothing at all
And sometimes I think I just forgot what I was looking for

[Chorus 1]
But I still need to believe in you
I still need to know you'll never, never give up
I believe in you
So how can you ever let my hope turn to despair?
How can you ever stop telling me you care?

[Chorus 2]
I still need to believe in you
I still need to know you'll never, never give up
I believe in you
So how can you ever let my hope turn to despair?
Tell me you believe it too, tell me that you care

[Outro]
How can you ever let my hope turn to despair?
How can you ever stop pretending?
