Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got to say it and it's hard for me
You got me crying like I thought I would never be
Love is believing but you let me down
How can I love you when you ain't around?
And I get to the morning and you never call
Love should be everything or not at all
And it don't matter whatever you do
I made a life out of loving you
[Verse 2]
Only to find any dream that I follow is dying
I'm crying in the rain
I could be searching my world for a love everlasting
Feeling no pain
When will we meet again?
[Verse 3]
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker?
Is it a lesson that I never knew?
Got to get out of the spell that I'm under
My love for you
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker?
When I was being what you want me to be
Suddenly everything I ever wanted
Has passed me by
This world may end
Not you and I
[Verse 4]
My love is stronger than the universe
My soul is crying for you
And that cannot be reversed
You made the rules
And you could not see
You made a life out of hurting me
Out of my mind
I am held by the power of you, love
Tell me, when do we try?
Or should we say goodbye?
[Verse 5]
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker?
When I was being what you want me to be
Suddenly everything I ever wanted
Has passed me by
[Verse 6]
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker?
Is it a lesson that I never knew?
Suddenly everything I ever wanted
My love for you, oh
[Verse 7]
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker?
When I was being what you want me to be
Suddenly everything I ever wanted
Has passed me by
