I can see the pain
living in your eyes
and I know how hard you try
You deserve to have so much more
I can feel your hurt
and I sympathize
And I'll never criticize
All you ever meant to my life
I don't want to let you down
I don't want to lead you on
I don't want to hold you back
from where you might belong

You would never ask me why
My heart is so disguised
I just can't live a lie anymore
I would rather hurt myself
Than to ever make you cry
There's nothing left to say
but goodbye

You deserve a chance
at the kind of love
I'm not sure I'm worthy of
Losing you is painful for me
I don't want to let you down
I don't want to lead you on
I don't want to hold you back
from where you might belong

You would never ask me why
My heart is so disguised
I just can't live a lie anymore
I would rather hurt myself
Than to ever make you cry
There's nothing left to say
but goodbye

You would never ask me why
My heart is so disguised
I just can't live a lie anymore
I would rather hurt myself
Than to ever make you cry
There's nothing left to try
and though it's gonna hurt us both
there's just no other way
than to say goodbye
