Goodbye

Every time my heart breaks by your hand,
You have a way of bringing me back to you,
Forcing my brain to understand,
Things you say I should already have knew.

I can't keep up to you,
I can't reach your love...

I won't let you close enough to hurt me,
I'll keep you far away from my heart.
No I can't ever come close to be,
What you need of me, I knew that from the start.

Yet I kept reaching for you're warm embrace,
Kept begging at your feet for attention.
For just a flavor of love, just a taste,
Though I don't fit your version of love's definition...

No, I won't rescue you to just leave me, I won't try
To be whatever it is you're looking for,
I've found that it's time to say goodbye
To you and your love, of that I'm sure.

I can't keep up to you,
I can't reach your love...
