Lyrics

V1: I asked you go - you wanted to stay
I didn't know what to say
So I turned and walked away
I couldn't break your heart

V2: I tried to call but couldn't speak
I wanted to tell you all the secrets I keep
Maybe I'm shy - maybe just weak
I couldn't break your heart

Bridge: Don't ask me why - I don't know
I told a lie long ago
Now it's come back to haunt me
And I didn't think you'd want me
If you knew what I've been through

V3: So I'm writing you this song
To say what I should have said all along
You were right - I was wrong
But I couldn't break your heart
