All alone, on my knees I pray
For the strength, to stay away

In and out
Out and in you go
I feel your fire
Then I lose my self control

[Chorus]
How can I, ease the pain?
When I know you're comin' back again
How can I, ease the pain in my heart?

[Repeat]
How can I, ease the pain?
When I know you're comin' back again
How can I, ease the pain in my heart?
How can I ease the pain?

Every time
That I let you in
You take away
Something deep within
A fool for love
Is a fool for pain
And I refuse
To love you again!

[Chorus]
How can I, ease the pain?
When I know you're comin' back again
How can I, ease the pain in my heart?

[Repeat]
How can I, ease the pain?
When I know you're comin' back again
How can I, ease the pain in my heart?
How can I ease the pain?
How can I ease it...

If it's not love
You've come here for
Tell me baby, why you're here
Knock, knock, knockin' at my door
I can't take it, no more no more
No more no more baby...
Give me all, or nothin' at all!

How can I, ease the pain?
When I know you're comin' back again
How can I, ease the pain in my heart?
How can I, ease the pain?
When I know you're comin' back again
How can I, ease the pain in my heart?
I need to know how... How can I
How can I ease the pain?
