I gave my all to you

And you made it easy to fall in love

I fell in love with someone

You pretended to be

Was too blind when I was with him

Now I see, so

Hook

Don't you come back running?

Now my heart is aching

I can not find a reason

To love you now

And don't you come back crying

Now that love is dying

I can not find a reason

To love you now, how can I love you now?

I thought my life was over

And I thought I'd never get over it

All the tears I cried

Were filled with so much pain

Tomorrow promises the pain

Will fade away, so

Hook

Bridge

Now it was just a game to you

What you put me through

Will come right back to you someday

Don't think I'm wishing bad on you

Now that I know

You were only here to play

Don't you ever think you have a chance again?

Cause I deserve so much more, so don't

Hook

Vamp

Don't you come

Back running

My heart is aching
