Oh baby, this time it's a good-bye 

And you can be sure that I won't cry 

Our love is just a faded story 

I'm walking down the road 

And you've just got to let me go 



Chorus

Cause I can't hold on 

I can't hold on 

I can't hold on anymore 



And what was that sweet lullabye 

And were all those promises just lies 

Well, I was just a fool to love you 

I knew it all along 

I can't look down, I know I'm falling 



CHORUS 



When you act the way that you do 

I want to scream and shout 

You keep on playing games 

I walk around the block 

And think maybe you'll change 

But just when it seems we've got it all worked out 

You start naming names 

I don't believe that I was the one to blame 



Any maybe next time you'll cry 

When someone like me says good-bye 

You'll wake up when she's gone and wonder 

How you could let her go 

But look at me, I'm going under 



CHORUS
