We both know that I shouldn't be here 
This is wrong 
And baby it's killing me, it's killing you 
Both of us trying to be strong 
I've got somewhere else to be 
Promises to keep 
Someone else who loves me 
And trusts me fast asleep 
I've made up my mind 
There is no turning back 
She's been good to me 
And she deserves better than that 

Chorus : 
It's the hardest thing 
I'll ever have to do 
To look you in the eye 
And tell you I don't love you 
It's the hardest thing 
I'll ever have to lie 
To show no emotion 
When you start to cry 
I can't let you see 
What you mean to me 
When my hands are tied 
And my hearts not free 
We're not meant to be 
It's the hardest thing 
I'll ever have to do 
To turn around and walk away 
Pretending I don't love you 

Maybe we'll meet again 
Fate has a place and time 
So you can get on with your life 
I've got to be cruel to be kind 
Like Dr. Zhivago 
All my love I'll be sending 
And you will never know 
Cause there can be no happy ending 

[Chorus]

Maybe another time, another day 
As much as I want to, I can't stay 
(Ooh) 
I've made up my mind 
There is no turning back 
She's been good to me 
And she deserves better than that 

[Chorus]

I don't want to live a lie 
What can I do
