I can’t afford to let you get away I never seem to decide
Two by four you watch as I parade Another batch of clowns Patiently holding on
Bitter sweet you and I We can’t say our goodbyes Cause our old love never dies And others pay with hearts broken wide
And we try really try But free’s a word that terrifies Cause our old love never dies Every time we try to say goodbye It’s just goodnight
Kids we stayed that day back when We met and you were only 24 There’s no reward for our get away Strung up by guilt by dawn Holding on and on
Bitter sweet you and I We can’t say our goodbyes The timing is never right We tell ourselves every time
And we try, really try To move on and hope it will subside With boys and girls who buy our lies But every time we try to say goodbye It’s just good night
Bittersweet you and I We can say our goodbyes Cause our old love never dies And other pay with hearts broken wide
Being free is alright But free’s a word that terrifies Cause our old love never dies
