Lyrics
The longer you wait to leave me
the longer I'll hurt, when you're gone
and the longer it takes you to break my heart
the longer the pain lingers on
How long will you prolong my misery?
Wish I could leave on my own...
Coz the longer you wait to leave me,
the longer I'll heart when you're gone...
(guitar)
We both know that you never loved me,
I lied to myself from the start
And we both know that someday you'll leave me,
and that knowin' just tears me apart
How long will you prolong my misery
wish I could leave on my own.
coz the longer you wait to leave me
the longer I'll heart when you are gone
