Theres something in your eyes
I should have seen
something there that doesnt quite belong
and theres something in the way
you touched my hand
I feel the tenderness but somethings wrong

How could I have been so blind
I thought this love would never die
now baby try

to break it to me gently
let me down easy
I don't think I can take
much more then that tonight
So let me catch my breath before you start
then break it to me gently
even if it gently breaks my heart

You caught me by surprise
Im unprepared
tell what am I supposed to do
I cant find any words
I just knwo that im scared
I never thought of me with out you

and I don't want a reason why
but if you have to say good-bye
then baby try

to break it to me gently
let me down easy
I don't think I can take
much more then that tonight
So let me catch my breath before you start
then break it to me gently
even if it gently breaks my heart

Tell me lies
tell me theres still time for us
Oh cant we try to find a little more time for us
a little time before you

to break it to me gently
let me down easy
I don't think I can take
much more then that tonight
So let me catch my breath before you start
then break it to me gently
even if it gently breaks my heart
