You said a little time is all you need
You told me that you're still young
And there's so much more you wanna see

You said you wanted to be alone to get into yourself
So I'm just supposed to let you go
And pretend my heart don't hurt like hell

Boy, it hurts me
That you wanna be free
Baby, if there's nothing I can't say
That'll make you want to stay with me

Can you please answer this before you go?
How am I supposed to go through life alone?
Where am I to run for love if you're no longer home?
How can I continue going through life alone?

Boy I thought that you were my best friend
You used to promise me your fidelity would never end
But now you say you need your space to grow
You wanna give back my heart but I give my love to only you

I don't want to make a brand new start
You were all my mine for all of this time
But baby if there's nothing I can't do
That'll make you want to change your mind

Can you please answer this before you go?
How am I supposed to go through life alone?
Where am I to run for love if you're no longer home?
How can I continue going through life alone?

You're so special to me
The thought of you leaving is killing me
Please, tell me what do I do now?
'Cause livin' without your love, I don't know how
I don't

Can you please answer this before you go?
How am I supposed to go through life alone?
Where am I to run for love if you're no longer home?
How can I continue going through life alone?

Can you please answer this before you go?
How am I supposed to go through life alone?
Where am I to run for love if you're no longer home?
How can I continue going through life alone?
