It’s been the hardest thing
I’ve ever had to do
But to save my heart
I had to walk away from you
All those sleepless nights
I lay awake longing to take you back
I never once called you up
To let you know I was feeling like that
So why am I lying here
With tears rolling down my face
Having a deja-vu
In our old familiar place
I guess I’m remembering the good times
Longing to talk to you
But it’s a momentary weakness
And I know if I do
I’d be right back where I started
When I stood helpless at your door
Right back where I started
And I can’t go there anymore
I guess you’ll never know
How strong I’ve had to be
I could slide right in
To the same old place so easily
But I’d be slowly losing
That something in my soul
I’ve come this far alone
I can’t turn around I know…
I’d be right back where I started
When I stood helpless at your door
Right back where I started
Losing my mind – one day at a time
And I can’t go there anymore
I can’t go there anymore
It’s been the hardest thing
I’ve ever had to do
But to save my heart
I had to walk away from you
All those sleepless nights
I wanted to just give in and take you back
I never once called you up
To let you know I was feeling like that
So why am I lying here
With tears rolling down my face
Having a deja-vu
In our old familiar place
I’m just remembering the good times
Longing to talk to you
But it’s a momentary weakness
And I know if I do
I’d be right back where I started
When I stood helpless at your door
Right back where I started
And I can’t go there anymore
I guess you’ll never know
How strong I’ve had to be
I could slide right in
To the same old place so easily
But I’d be slowly losing
That something in my soul
I’ve come this far alone
I can’t turn around I know…
I’d be right back where I started
When I stood helpless at your door
Right back where I started
Losing my mind – one day at a time
And I can’t go there anymore
I can’t go there anymore
