What have you got to say for yourself, now baby
G/E - G/D C F G
Now that I am leaving you, what have you got to lose

The truth you tried to keep from me, well it nearly drove me crazy

You made this love a teardrop waiting to fall
G/E - G/D C F G

G/E - G/D C F G
When you're lonely in the night, how I hope you will recall
G/E - G/D C F G G/E G/F G/F
You made this love a teardrop waiting to fall
Though I will not forgive you for betraying the trust between us
Though I will always care for you, I've loved you half my life
And when I give my heart again, I know that I'll remember
Love is but a fragile flame, and trust just fuels the fire
When I think of all the years your love has taken from me
I can't believe I'm leaving you
