Lyrics & Translation

[English]

You know I'm not one

to break promises

I don't want to hurt you but I need to breathe

At the end of it all, you're still my best friend

But there's something inside that I need to release

Which way is right, which way is wrong

How do I say that I need to move on

You know we're heading separate ways

And it feels like I am just too close to love you

There's nothing that I can really say

You've given me more than I can return

Yet there's oh so much that you deserve

There's nothing to say, nothing to do

I've nothing to give

I must live without you

You know we're heading separate ways

And it feels like I am just too close to love you

There's nothing that I can really say

I can't lie no more, I can't hide no more,

Got to be true to myself

And it feels like I am just too close to love you

So I'll be on my way

So I'll be on my way

And it fee-eels like I am ju-ust too-oo-oo close,

Fee-eels like I am ju-ust too-oo-oo close,

Fee-eels like I am ju-ust too-oo-oo close,

Fee-eels like I am ju-ust too-oo-oo close

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
