I whispered you words I thought I'd never say
We played the game, but then we tossed the rules away
Could deny it
Justify it
But we both know that we went too far
Oh, I can feel you and I need you
No matter wherever you are

I don't wanna watch my love come crashing down
But I can't lie to my heart
I don't really want your memory hanging 'round
But baby I just can't lie to my heart

I have loved you longer than you've even known
When you hurt, I hurt, I'm your flesh and you're my bone
If I could only
Be two people
Darlin' I swear we'd both be with you
Oh, I know I'm selfish, but I'm helpless
I want you, and nothing else will do

I don't wanna watch my love come crashing down
But I can't lie to my heart.
I don't really want your memory hanging 'round
Ripping me right apart.

I won't pretend anymore
Been hiding too long
I won't go on like before
I'm not that strong

Oh, I can feel it when I'm near you
It's not healthy to need you this way
I try to fight it, get inside it
But this pain is stronger than me and it won't go away

I don't wanna watch my love come crashing down
But I can't lie to my heart
I don't really want your memory hanging 'round
Ripping me right apart

I don't wanna watch my love come crashing down
But I can't lie to my heart
I don't really want your memory hanging 'round
Not anymore
I can't lie anymore
Baby, I can't
Baby, I can't

No, baby, I just can't lie to my heart
