I've seen your face a million times
But now you're someone I don't recognize
The clock upon the wall, it won't stop moving
And time will not forget the things we lose

You are not strong enough to hold me near
You'd close your eyes and fall away from here
You hurt me, it had to be
You've got to do what makes you happy

At night, I knew I'd have to walk away
Realized that there was nothing I could say
I hurt you, I had to
You've got to know I'm awful sorry

I feel so terrified at night
It's like I'm trapped in someone else's life
The shadows on the wall are playing games
They won't let me forget the shape of you

You are not strong enough to hold me near
You'd close your eyes and fall away from here
You hurt me, it had to be
You've got to do what makes you happy

At night I knew I'd have to walk away
Realized that there was nothing I could say
I hurt you, I had to
You've got to know I'm awful sorry

This is where it's at, you can't take it back
In a heartbeat, it's suddenly over
I don't understand
Why you took my hand and left me dreaming

You are not strong enough to hold me near
You'd close your eyes and fall away from here
You hurt me, it had to be
You've got to do what makes you happy

At night I knew I'd have to walk away
Realized that there was nothing I could say
I hurt you, I had to
You've got to know I'm awful sorry

You are not strong enough to hold me near
You'd close your eyes and fall away from here
You hurt me, it had to be
You've got to do what makes you happy

At night I knew I'd have to walk away
Realized that there was nothing I could say
I hurt you, I had to
You've got to know I'm awful sorry
