You’re always busy fixing everybody else
You’ve got a million words for people you don't know
But Paco, when you're home, you keep it to yourself
And let the heavy silence in the hallway grow
I used to be your world, the only place you'd stay
But now I'm just a burden standing in your way
I look at you and wonder where my husband went
I don't know the man beside me, or what those years meant
ChorusYou promised me forever, then you left me in the cold
Right when I needed you to stay and be the hand I hold
You said you loved me, but I know that it was never true
'Cause real love doesn't break the heart that's holding onto you
It doesn't push away, it doesn't throw it all to waste
You left when I ran out of what you wanted to take
Verse 2I look back at the memories, the beautiful and bright
And wonder if the life you gave me was a lie all along
I tried to tell you how it hurt, I cried into the night
But you rejected every word and acted like I was wrong
I waited and I gave you chance after chance
But all I got was distance and an empty, hollow glance
Just tears and pain ignored while you were walking out the door
I don't know how to reach the man that I loved anymore
ChorusYou promised me forever, then you left me in the cold
Right when I needed you to stay and be the hand I hold
You said you loved me, but I know that it was never true
'Cause real love doesn't break the heart that's holding onto you
It doesn't push away, it doesn't throw it all to waste
You left when I ran out of what you wanted to take
BridgeHow can you break me down without a shred of remorse?
Just watch me fall apart and let it run its course?
So I am letting go, I have to set my spirit free
May your life be what you could never find in me
Final Chorus'Cause you promised me forever, then you left me in the cold
Right when I needed you to stay and be the hand I hold
You said you loved me, but I finally see the truth
Real love doesn't break the heart that's holding onto you
It doesn't push away, it doesn't throw it all to waste
You left when I ran out of what you wanted to take
Yeah, you left when I ran out of what you wanted to take
