lyrics
Standing in the cool night
Flashing red and blue lights make it real
People talking to me
I can’t hear a thing, no I can’t even feel
The tears drying on my face
And can’t Ley myself talk to you
Cos I know exactly what you’re gonna say
But baby, we’ve been here before
And I can’t do this anymore
I know we can be better
but not if we’re together
I’m sure
I can’t do this anymore
The show cannot go on now
Not now they've torn our curtains down
And the story that we swore we’d never tell
Has now been painted through the town
And I can’t let myself talk to you
Cos I know exactly what you’re gonna say
But baby I’ve heard it all before
And I can’t do this anymore
I know we can be better
But not if we’re together
And I know it feels as though this choice will break you
But it’s for our own good
And I wish that I could find the strength to hate you
But you know I never could
And I can’t let myself talk to you
Cos I know exactly what you’re gonna say
Cos I wanna say it too
“I’m sorry and I never meant to hurt you
Come into my arms
Maybe tonight will be the last time”
I know we’re both lying
But I’m sick of crying
I love you, but I took too long to learn to
And I had you but god I didn’t earn you
But baby we’ve been here before
And I can’t do this anymore
I know we can be better
But not if we’re together
I’m sure
I can’t do this…
Flashing red and blue lights make it real
People talking to me
I can’t hear a thing, no I can’t even feel
The tears drying on my face
And can’t Ley myself talk to you
Cos I know exactly what you’re gonna say
But baby, we’ve been here before
And I can’t do this anymore
I know we can be better
but not if we’re together
I’m sure
I can’t do this anymore
The show cannot go on now
Not now they've torn our curtains down
And the story that we swore we’d never tell
Has now been painted through the town
And I can’t let myself talk to you
Cos I know exactly what you’re gonna say
But baby I’ve heard it all before
And I can’t do this anymore
I know we can be better
But not if we’re together
And I know it feels as though this choice will break you
But it’s for our own good
And I wish that I could find the strength to hate you
But you know I never could
And I can’t let myself talk to you
Cos I know exactly what you’re gonna say
Cos I wanna say it too
“I’m sorry and I never meant to hurt you
Come into my arms
Maybe tonight will be the last time”
I know we’re both lying
But I’m sick of crying
I love you, but I took too long to learn to
And I had you but god I didn’t earn you
But baby we’ve been here before
And I can’t do this anymore
I know we can be better
But not if we’re together
I’m sure
I can’t do this…
