If I Fail

Time to go, this is goodbye she said,
does it ever get easier to live like this?
And to kiss the cheek, I can't kiss you anymore, and I, I would honestly love you now,
but I would lovily let you down...
Oh, I have the hardest time resisting you, and, oh, if you...
If you feel the same way,
then how can we be friends?
He's right you know, we can't go on like this.
And I try to give you everything
and if I fail, well then I fail, but at least I gave you something...
I can put my trust in giving up the heart that makes the difference,
and how can you afford to settle down?
When I, I would promise to love you now,
but I will lovingly let you down...
Oh, I have the hardest time resisting you, and, oh, if you...
If you feel the same way,
then how can we be friends?
He's right you know, we can't go on like this.
And I try to give you everything
and if I fail, well then I fail, but at least I gave you something...
It's better than silence,
give me one good reason.
(You know)
To leave this in silence,
you don't have a good reason.
If you feel the same way,
then how can we be friends?
He's right you know, we can't go on like this.
And I try to give you everything
and if I fail, well then I fail, but at least I gave you something...
It's better than silence, it's better than silence.
