[Verse 1]
I've tried
And I've lied to myself
To stop the tears
But it's been too many years
And you keep doing the same thing
Making the same old promises
Before you play with my heart again
I'ma keep it one hundred
It's been on my mind
And before you get to lying
[Chorus]
Let me tell you I'm sorry (Sorry)
But I can't be here anymore (No, no, no)
Baby, I'm sorry (Sorry)
Not even love can make me stay another day
You're holding on to me
When I know we need to be free
I just need some time so I can breathe
[Verse 2]
You say you want me by your side
But you won't even try
To listen when I'm telling you the simple things
(Baby, it's the simple things that matter in life)
I don't wanna fight you no more
I don't wanna waste no time
I'ma keep it one hundred
This been on my mind
So don't lie
[Chorus]
I'm telling you I'm sorry (Sorry)
But I can't be here anymore (No, no, no)
Baby, I'm sorry (Sorry)
Not even love can make me stay another day
You're holding on to me (Let go)
When I know we need to be free
I just need some time so I can
[Bridge]
Get back what you stole (You stole)
Rebuild what you broke down
Won't be no more crying myself to sleep
I'm over you (Over you)
Time is overdue (Overdue)
No need for another lie
'Cause I made up my mind
[Chorus]
Baby, I'm sorry (Sorry)
I can't be here anymore (No, no, no)
I'm so sorry (Sorry)
Not even love can make me stay another day
You're holding on to me (Let go)
When I know we need to be free
I just need some time so I can breathe
I've tried
And I've lied to myself
To stop the tears
But it's been too many years
And you keep doing the same thing
Making the same old promises
Before you play with my heart again
I'ma keep it one hundred
It's been on my mind
And before you get to lying
[Chorus]
Let me tell you I'm sorry (Sorry)
But I can't be here anymore (No, no, no)
Baby, I'm sorry (Sorry)
Not even love can make me stay another day
You're holding on to me
When I know we need to be free
I just need some time so I can breathe
[Verse 2]
You say you want me by your side
But you won't even try
To listen when I'm telling you the simple things
(Baby, it's the simple things that matter in life)
I don't wanna fight you no more
I don't wanna waste no time
I'ma keep it one hundred
This been on my mind
So don't lie
[Chorus]
I'm telling you I'm sorry (Sorry)
But I can't be here anymore (No, no, no)
Baby, I'm sorry (Sorry)
Not even love can make me stay another day

When I know we need to be free
I just need some time so I can

When I know we need to be free
I just need some time so I can breathe
