(Taylor Dayne, Ric Wake) 

  

Didn't really want to say good-bye 

I was torn between love and pride 

You kissed the child in me 

Went and brought about a lady 

Lovin times always seen to change 

I guess I'm a part to blame 

We lost our eye to eye 

Day and night I only cry 

Well your pushing got the best of me 

A time I'd thought I'd never leave 

Lift the hands that had a hold on me 

Now tis time to breathe 

Cause you meant the world to me 

But I had other needs 

To be the girl of someone's eye 

And not a type that you could love and hide 

Cause you had to take control 

So I just had to go 

I'm sorry how it had to be 

But you meant the world to me 

The love you gave blinded me 

So disguised I couldn't see 

You eyes seemed so sincere 

I didn't notice any trouble there 

But you went and turned your love on me 

Only wanted me lock and key 

Didn't understand my thoughts and ways 

Pretty soon you said I'd changed 

Chorus 

You meant the world to me 

You meant the world 

People tell you stand by your man 

If it's love through thick and thin 

But you wouldn't go and let it be 

So now it's time for me, yeah 

Chorus
