Lyrics for I Hope I Never

I fall apart when you're around When you're here, I'm nowhere I can't pretend that I'm not down I show it, I know it I've been a fool - more than once, more than twice I'm gonna move to a new town where the people are nice I hope I never, I hope I never have to sigh again I hope I never, I hope I never have to cry again I still want to beam and smile Happiness is back in style yeah I hope I never, I hope I never have to see you again Again, oh oh oh oh It should be possible I know To see you without stress But I can see I'll have to go I'm changing my address My urge to cry I have failed to conceal Life - it's no fun when you're hunted by the things that you feel I hope I never, I hope I never have to sigh again I hope I never, I hope I never have to cry again I'm for living while you can I'm an optimistic man I hope I never, I hope I never have to see you again Again, oh oh oh oh... I hope I never I hope I never I hope I never, never, never... I hope I never, I hope I never have to see you again Again.
