I tried so hard to live my life with you But you seem so cruel You keep on making things complicated When it's not I'm begging you baby stop Why do we keep on hurting each other Why can't we just be lovers Love is mean't to last forever But its impossible with you Why do we keep on hurting each other Why can't we just be lovers Love is mean't to last forever Then why is it impossible with you. You lose a real good thing if you ever lose me You better take time to think This love can work if we take the time to communicate Why don't we talk any more (back to chorus) My baby why can't you see what you doin' to me You keep on hurting my heart, hurting my heart la la la la la la My baby, why do i feel like i have to prove so much to you (blessed is a man who tries to do the right thing) (only the meek shall inherit earth)
