You’re telling me it’s over and there’s nothing left to say
But I still have the love for you I’ll carry to my grave
I know that I can’t keep you if you long to be set free
Just don’t leave the leaving up to me

For I just can’t believe we’re through no matter what you say
My heart won’t let me be the one to turn and walk away
But if that’s the way you want it that’s the way it will be
Just don’t leave the leaving up to me

I want you to be happy even though it breaks my heart
To know that you’d be satisfied with tearing us apart
So if I must let you go then I’ll do it willing
Just don’t leave the leaving up to me
