Today I felt a pain inside my heart

The thought of leaving you was on my mind

If I've been deceiving youit's all because I'm blind

'cause I care for you more than you know

Although my heart says go

Today I saw the tears inside your eyes

The thought of hurting youI'd rather die

If I'm deserting youI don't mean to make you cry

'cause I care for you more than you know

Although my heart says



How do you tell the one

You love goodbye for good

Or even know if you should

And how do you say the words

You thought you never could

When you promised her

That you love was true

Said I'd never thinkof leaving you

Oh how can lovebe cruel



Today I felt a pain inside my heart

The thought of leaving you had crossed my mind

If I've been deceiving youit's only cause I'm blind

'cause I care for you more than you know

Although my heart says go



[chorus]



How can you live a lie

When you know it's wrong

And you know it's not right

When you say you do

But you know you don't

When you say you will

But you know that you won't

When you're not alive

You should let it die

Just let gojust let goof the pain inside

Tell me how do you know

Tell me how to let go

Tell me howhowhow



[chorus]
