[Verse 1]
Wish I could be the one, the one who could give you love
The kind of love you really need
Wish I could say to you that I'll always stay with you
But baby, that's not me
You need someone
Willing to give their heart and soul to you
Promise you forever
Baby, that's something I can't do
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I could say that I'll be all you need
But that would be a lie
[Chorus]
I know I'd only hurt you
I know I'd only make you cry
I'm not the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye
[Verse 2]
I hope someday you can find someway to understand
I'm only doing this for you
I don't really want to go but deep in my heart I know
This is the kindest thing to do
You'll find someone
Will be the one that I could never be
Who'll give you something better
Than the love you'll find with me
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I could say that I'll be all you need
But that would be a lie
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Leaving someone
When you love someone
Is the hardest thing to do
When you love someone as much as I love you
Oh, I don't want to leave you
Baby, it tears me up inside
But I'll never be the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye
[Outro]
Baby, it's never going to work out
I love you, goodbye
