How can I tell him
How can I tell him
I gotta be moving on
Can't seem to say it
But how can I hide it
Whatever we had is gone
He still says he needs me
And he'll never leave me
But he knows it's not the same
How can I hurt him
But doesn't it hurt him
To keep on with this game
No use pretending, it's all over
No happy ending, it's all over
Can't go on avoiding
The suffering in his eyes
Can't go on protecting him with lies
No more lies
He's holding me near him
He's planning our future
But my mind is miles away
It's wrong to dеceive him
It's wrong not to leavе him
Gets more painful the longer I stay
I wanna stick by him
I wanna still love him
But love's not a matter of choice
How can I tell him
I gotta tell him
But it's like I lost my voice
No use pretending, it's all over
No happy ending, it's all over
Can't go on avoiding
The suffering in his eyes
Can't go on protecting him with lies
No more lies
How can I hurt him
How can I tell him
Gotta be moving on
Can't seem to say it
Whatever we had is gone
Tell me, how can I tell him
Ooh-ooh-ooh...
How can I tell him
Can't seem to hide it
Gotta keep moving on
Gotta be moving on
Ooh, gotta keep moving on
Gotta be moving on
Moving on
Moving on
I can't hide this hurt inside
Just gotta keep on moving on
Can't keep hurting inside
Just got to keep on moving, moving
Moving, moving, moving, moving
Moving, moving, ooh, moving on
Oh, how can I tell him
Oh, how can I tell him...
How can I tell him
I gotta be moving on
Can't seem to say it
But how can I hide it
Whatever we had is gone
He still says he needs me
And he'll never leave me
But he knows it's not the same
How can I hurt him
But doesn't it hurt him
To keep on with this game
No use pretending, it's all over
No happy ending, it's all over
Can't go on avoiding
The suffering in his eyes
Can't go on protecting him with lies
No more lies
He's holding me near him
He's planning our future
But my mind is miles away
It's wrong to dеceive him
It's wrong not to leavе him
Gets more painful the longer I stay
I wanna stick by him
I wanna still love him
But love's not a matter of choice
How can I tell him
I gotta tell him
But it's like I lost my voice
No use pretending, it's all over
No happy ending, it's all over
Can't go on avoiding
The suffering in his eyes
Can't go on protecting him with lies
No more lies
How can I hurt him
How can I tell him
Gotta be moving on
Can't seem to say it
Whatever we had is gone
Tell me, how can I tell him
Ooh-ooh-ooh...
How can I tell him
Can't seem to hide it
Gotta keep moving on
Gotta be moving on
Ooh, gotta keep moving on
Gotta be moving on
Moving on
Moving on
I can't hide this hurt inside
Just gotta keep on moving on
Can't keep hurting inside
Just got to keep on moving, moving
Moving, moving, moving, moving
Moving, moving, ooh, moving on
Oh, how can I tell him
Oh, how can I tell him...
