[verse i]
i'm reading your "dear john";
it says you're moving on
you need your space, you need some time
and greener grass you seek to find
i saw it from afar
i knew it in my heart
the happiness had gone away
pretended we would be ok
[hook]
for every time you've made me cry
i gotta sit and wonder why
i love you, i still do
i need you, i always will
i want you to hold me tight
i need you with me tonight
i still do
[verse ii]
why do i hold on?
why can't i be strong?
i know it's time to walk away
but still inside i hope and pray
that you'll return to me
my eyes too blind to see
that love should never bring me pain
i know i can't go on this way
[bridge]
i gotta wipe away the tears
i gotta stand and face my fears
i gotta love myself enough to make it better
the woman that i used to be
i know she's still inside of me
i'll find a way to breathe again
this won't be how my story ends |
