The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It was running through my mind
I was running out of time
And it was time to let you go
No more right or wrong
No more crying all night long
Even though it's lonely here alone
When the phone rings I almost wish that it was you
There's nothing left to say and nothing we can do
I can stand on my own two feet
And I know that this is best for you and me
Believe me, it's not easy
I can feel the pain
It hurts so much to leave
But not enough to stay
You've convinced me before to come back for more
Well this time I'm not turning around
I'm sure one more try is bound to end in goodbye
And I've come too far to turn back now
I know the hardest part is over
And I take a breath
Now we can look forward
To better days ahead
Oh I can stand on my own two feet
And I know that this is best for you and me
Believe me, it's not easy
I can feel the pain
It hurts so much to leave
But not enough to stay
Oh I can stand on my own two feet
And I know that this is best for you and me
Believe me, it's not easy
I can feel the pain
It hurts so much to leave
It hurts so much to leave
It hurts so much to leave
But not enough to stay
