Here comes the let down Hearing your voice on the telephone Wanting you here with me Knowing I'm going to be on my own When you say that it won't be tonight Should I show you I'm hurting? Would it help me to stand up and fight Or would that be just the chance you've been waiting for?
Don't keep pretending That we aren't drifting apart You're fooling yourself You know that you're never going to leave him And if this thing is ending Please don't keep breaking my heart If I'm not the one Then baby please tell me that it's over
You come and cry on my shoulder You promise me this time you're really through And I end up believing That this time I'm goin' to have all of you Then you say that you think we should wait Just a little bit longer Should I tell you it's getting too late To keep on believing I mean that much to you?
Don't keep pretending That we aren't drifting apart You're fooling yourself You know that you're never going to leave him And if this thing is ending Please don't keep breaking my heart If I'm not the one Then baby please tell me that it's over
Don't keep pretending That you really want to let go baby Is this the ending? 'Cause I can start to feel you slip away
Don't keep pretending That he doesn't have a hold on you Is this the ending? Oh I really got to know the answer baby
Don't keep pretending That you really want to be with me Do you really want to be with me?
Whenever I wake up in the night Your promises echo in my mind But my heart keeps telling me this could never be And then I would say it over again That I would never be your fool No I can't believe this is happening to me
