Life was never meant to be easy
Things will come and things will go
When I look at you I seem to go blind
For my eyes, the truth, is denied

Why can't I love you the way that I want
You guess, I bet

Of all the stupid things that you've heard
None of them are entirely true
For all the moments I can't hold back
I grieve, I mourn, I long for you again

Why can't I love you the way that I want
You guess, I bet
How can I love you the way that I want
and get you back

Of all the stupid things that you've heard
None of them are entirely true
For all the moments I can't hold back
I grieve, I mourn, I long for you again

Why can't I love you the way that I want
You guess, I bet
Why can’t I love you the way that I want
And get you there
Why can’t I love you the way that I want
and get you back
