It's more than I can handle,
|
much more than I can take,
|
You never feel the fire
|
'til you lose the love you make,
|
I should've seen it comin',
|
now that I'm in deeper than I've ever been,
|
she's soundin' like a stranger,
|
and I'm afraid I've done it to myself again, oh...
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Sittin' here all through the night,
|
losin' this fight,
|
don't let her be the one that got away,
|
things I should have said keep runnin' through my head,
|
and I'm the fool that's missin' her today,
|
I can't believe this is happening to me,
|
can't let the girl turn out to be the one that got away.
|
|
Long distance conversations,
|
a thousand miles from home,
|
don't satisfy the hunger
|
when you're feelin' so alone,
|
now it may be too late,
|
she won't forget the way I treated her,
|
could've been so easy
|
all I had to do was
|
say I needed her, oh...
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I knew there'd be trouble,
|
the day I left town,
|
I never thought this could take me
|
take me down, oh ...
|
|
[Chorus]
|
