I didn’t mean to let you down
You have to believe it
I don’t know what went
Through my mind
But now I can see That I waited too long
To tell you how much it matters
Just to be right here with you
But I couldn’t think of anything better
I should have told you so
Baby open your heart
Won’t you give me a second chance
And I’ll be here forever
Open your heart
Let me show you how much I care
And I will make you understand
If you open your heart
To love me once again
I’ll try to make it up to you
I want you to know
Baby I swear that I’ll be true
And never let go
If I waited too long
To tell you how much it matters
Just to be right here with you
But I couldn’t think of anything better
I should have told you so
We could relive this pain and sorrow
But we better do it in time
Start over here and save tomorrow
I wanna make you mine
To love me once again
We both know that I shouldn’t be here
This is wrong
And, baby, it’s killing me, it’s killing you
Both of us tryin’ to be strong
I’ve got somewhere else to be
Promises to keep
And someone else who loves me
And trusts me fast asleep
I’ve made up my mind
There is no turning back
She’s been good to me
And she deserves better than that
It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do
To look you in the eye and tell you I don’t love you
It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to lie
To show no emotion when you start to cry
I can’t let you see what you mean to me
‘Cause my hands are tied and my heart’s not free
We’re not meant to be
It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do
To turn around and walk away
Pretending I don’t love you
I know that we’ll meet again
Fate has a place and time
So you can get on with your life
I’ve got to be cruel to be kind
Like Dr. Zhivago
All my love I’ll be sending
And you will never know
‘Cause there can be no happy ending
Maybe another time, another day
As much as I want to, I can’t stay
I’ve made up my mind
There is no turning back
She’s been good to me
And she deserves better than that
