lyrics

I have to say it and it's hard for me
You’ve got me crying like I thought I’d never be
Love is believing but you let me down
How can I love you when you’re not around?

Get to the morning and you never call
Love should be everything or not at all
But it don't matter whatever you do
I made a life out of loving you

Only to find any dream that I follow is dying
I'm crying in the rain
I should be searching my world for a love everlasting
And feeling no pain
When will we meet again?

Why do you have to be a heartbreaker
Is this the lesson that I never knew?
Gotta 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 will end
Not you and I

My love is wider than the universe
My soul’s crying for you and that can’t be reversed
You made it up but you couldn’t 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 just say goodbye?

Why do you have to be a heartbreaker
Is this the lesson that I never knew?
Gotta 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 will end
Not you and I

But in his current ‘second act’ as a silver-haired, tender-hearted but sharp-tongued singer-songwriter, he has no equal. ... more
