My whole life, I've been afraid to walk
away from somebody who's not worthy
Create excuse, take the blame, wipe the tears
say they didn't mean to hurt me
But I wasn't enough, no, I didn't ask for much
I just wanted you to love me
Picking fights, lonely nights
didn't try 'cause you knew that you had me

Maybe it's just not our right time
But we both know that's a lie

'Cause there's no right time
When someone's the one
Oh, it hits me like a bad bruise
We're a dead end, that's the sad truth
It's a losing war, it's a double bind
You didn't want me, and I want you
Oh, I had to leave, I had to
Oh, I had to leave, I had to

Just broke the news, swear I'm fine
but it's time that I write this ending
I stayed all night, watched you cry, oh
now you're hurting the second I'm leaving
And now you're fighting for us, but it's not good enough
and now you know what I'm feeling

Don't try n' call, I won't lie
This is the last time
That you're gonna see me

'Cause there's no right time
When someone's the one
Oh, it hits me like a bad bruise
We're a dead end, that's the sad truth
It's a losing war, it's a double bind
You didn't want me, and I want you
Oh, I had to leave, I had to
Oh, I had to leave, I had to

The blurry street lights (The blurry street lights)
Remind me of you and I (You and I)
And it's over this time (It's over this time) , oh
It's over this time (It's over this time)
But it's time to let go (It's time to let go)
The curtains are closed (The curtains are closed)
Baby, when you know you know, I had to leave, I had to
The blurry street lights (The blurry street lights)
Remind me of you and I (You and I)
I'm not the one that you choose, so I had to leave, I had to
