Why can't only things be like they were
It's not the same when I now look and speak to her
I may be changed but so have she
It's like we're prisoners and we just can't get free
I see her eyes the same old eyes
But then she breaks me down and makes our feelings die
I got a life on my own
I have to be on my own sometimes
I have to stand on my own two feet's and I know I treat her good
But why do we always fight
I can't look at you
I can't be with you tonight
And I know that this ain't right
Because I love you so but I have to go alone
Why can't only I for one just be
It's not the same when I now look and speak to him
I may be changed but so have he
It's like we've locked us up and thrown away the key
I see your smile the same old smile
But then he takes me down and make our feelings die
I got a life on my own
I have to be on my own sometimes
I have to stand on my own two feet's cause I know I treat him good
But why do we always fight
I can't look at you
I can't be with you tonight
And I know that this ain't right
Because I love you so but I have to go alone
