Lyrics
I've got to find me a way
there must be something I can say
to let you know I don't wanna go seperate ways
maybe I'm wasting my time
to think that fate would be so kind
just to bring you back my way
if you only knew just how sorry I am
that I let your loving slip right out of my hands
now memories of you and I are all that I have
and I want you back so bad...so bad
don't wanna be lonely out here on my own
don't wanna be telling my friends
I'm happy living here all alone
don't wanna be lonely
spending my nights alone
when I know I could make you happy
All of my friends think I'm fine
just because they can't read my mind
or they would know you occupy that space all the time
trying to be so savior faire
acting like I don't really care
I laugh so hard it makes me cry
If they only knew just how sorry I am
that I let your loving slip right out of my hands
now memories of you and i are all that I have
but I want you back so bad
REPEAT CHORUS
Each day it feels like rain
falling down on my parade
dark clouds follow me around
they know that you are gone
I talk with friends and laugh
but good times are in the past
nothing seems to help me boy
Cause I'm just holding on
REPEAT CHORUS
