How - Kayak

You say you really love me

But you fail to make me understand

While pretending that I can t be bothered

I know I ll never let you touch my soul again

Easier said than done

So I m telling myself that I m strong

Telling the world that all is fine

That I d rather live with feelings of regret

Than make you think I d ever want you back

How many roads do you want me to travel

How do I live through these tears

How many heartbreaks and dreams to unravel

And words that I don t wanna hear

I know you ll stop at nothing

To show me that my heart is weak

Even if it is, I m only left to wonder

If love means always having to turn the other cheek

It s easier said than done

And who am I trying to con

Believing that it just takes time

To feel no more stirrings of regret

To forget how much I want you back

How many roads do you want me to travel

And how do I live through these tears

How many heartaches and dreams to unravel

Before I d even let you come near

How many nights till I see past tomorrow

And how do I banish the tears

Don t let me drown in an ocean of sorrow

Pushing aside all my fears
