lyrics

It was too soon
There was too much at stake
Wish I had known it was all a mistake

Hopped on a plance
And into your arms
And into your bed
Got into your head

Couldn't resist
It all seemed so perfect
But yet again, another dead end
When will I learn, how will I know?
They always put on a really good show

But when the times comes to get really real
They always run for the hills
I would have followed him
To the ends of the earth
If he was worth it
And I wasn't so broken

I don't understand
I can't comprehend
What just happened
In my head

He told me he loved me
And that he was ready
And that I was perfect
Then took it all away

Or wait, was it me
That called you out
With all of my doubts
That I couldn't be
What you needed
I couldn't be
What you needed

It's a sad lonely life
Being crippled with strife
Of never knowing
If I'll ever be wanted

With two broken feet
And a body that's crumbling
Crippled by the devil's own hand

Who would ever want a woman like that?
I'm no good to anyone, I don't blame him
We were so close to falling in love
Then it abruptly ended

Oh love, why does it hurt so much?
Why must there be so much heartache?
Oh love, why don't I just give up?
Every time I try I just break

It wasn't our time
It wasn't quite right
Perhaps in another lifetime
I'll try again
Lest I forget
This heartache is just temporary

I won't give up on love
I know that I'm meant
To find something that's everlasting
Despite my tears, and all of my fears
I know in my heart, I deserve it

But I couldn't be what you needed
I couldn't be what you needed
I couldn't be what you needed
I couldn't be what you needed

I won't give up
I'll keep up the fight
To follow my heart to the right one
And not just an illusion
Not just an illusion

But I couldn't be what you needed
I couldn't be what you needed
I couldn't be what you needed

It was too soon
There was too much at stake
Wish I had known
It was all a mistake
