I realize you're seeing someone new
I don't believe she knows you like I do
Your temperamental moody side
The one you always try to hide from meBut I know when you have something on your mind
You've been trying to tell me for the longest time
And before you break my heart in two
There's something I've been trying to say to youBut the words get in the way
There's so much I want to say
But it's locked deep inside and if you look in my eyes
We might fall in love againWon't even start to cry
And before we say goodbye
I tried to say "I love you"
But the words got in the wayYour heart has always been an open door
But baby, I don't even know you any more
And despite the fact it's hurting me
I know the time has come to set you freeBut the words get in the way
There's so much I want to say
But it's locked deep inside and if you look in my eyes
We might fall in love againWon't even start to cry
And before we say goodbye
I tried to say "I love you"
But the words got in the wayI'm trying to say "I love you"
But the words get in the way
