Lyrics
You left me teary and helpless I try my best to be strong and I have experience, I do it well, though I have loved you so long Now I am trying my best to let you go and I try not to cry loud and clear My tears are heard but they’re understated so you don’t have to cry too, you have nothing to fear What can I do to win you back? Nothing, I know it too well I’m making this so damn easy for you I’m dying but I won’t tell you You have undergone some changes, haven’t you? Now I’m seeing them all so clear You are older but you seem more untrue That makes it easier for me, but what about you, my dear? Perhaps you didn’t really change, maybe I just didn’t see that you were acting the part, pretending to understand perfectly But I never saw your true colors shining and you never heard my emptiness You misinterpreted my emotions, girl, took away the oxygen, leaving me breathless
