Jake Worthington Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I can't hold the hurt inside, keep the pain out of my eyes anymore
My tears no longer waiting, my resistance ain't that strong
And my mind keeps recreating a life with you alone
And I'm tired of pretending I don't love you anymore
Let me make one last appeal just to show you how I feel about you
'Cause there's no one else I swear that holds a candle anywhere next to you
And yeah a small voice keeps repeating deep inside my soul
It says I can't keep pretending that I don't love you anymore
I've got to take the chance or let it pass by
If I expect to get on with my life, with my life
My tears no longer waiting, no my resistance ain't that strong
And in my mind I'm recreating a life with you alone
And I'm tired of pretending I don't love you anymore
