Lyrics
Am I not good enough for you Am I not worth to hold your hand Have I not checked out all on your list Am I not meant to be your man Pain or scream lay it on me Hate me the more you can see You make me the way you want this to be But maybe one day you wake up and find out That I loved you I have a little hope that deep inside you'll know You could love me too Even the sky has to fall I could take us through There you go, there you go Walking away with the man Who doesn't love you There was nothing left for me to find But I kept on looking for more Left my heart alone at the door Wondering where I have never been before The love in life that I couldn't find Will find ways into your night They'll keep you warm till the sun gives you light Maybe one day you wake up and find out That I loved you I have a little hope that deep inside you'll know You could love me too Even the world has to end I could take us through There you go, there you go Walking away with the man Who doesn't love you Hmmm Hmmm Maybe one day you wake up and find out That I loved you I have a little hope that deep inside you'll know You could love me too Even the sky has to fall I could take us through There you go, there you go Walking away with the man Who doesn't love you
