I've never wanted anything so badly...
I've never hurt this much.
I've given up my heart...
I thought you said it was safe enough.
I guess you were wrong...
The tears stain my cheeks.

Did you know it would come to this?
Did you know how it would hurt?
Please let me let go of you...
You know I'll always love you...
But I can't live like this.
Hearts weren't meant to suffer...
They were meant to love.

And if you only knew...
That it was into your open arms I'd like to run...
Would you be waiting?
Or would be still be here staring...
Looking into each other's pain filled eyes...
Just so you know...
Our goodbye is my demise...
I'll never really live again.
But I can't pretend I have a mother
When you can't be my friend.

Please believe me...
I don't want this to end...
I want my Mommy...
But my Mommy is dead.
She left me when I was a little girl.
And I've been wrong to try and find her.
Mother's aren't found...
They're gifts from God...
My gift was never given...
I wasn't deserving...
But I never wanted to let you go...
And I still don't want to walk away...
But it's better for you...
I can't hurt you this way.
