VERSE 1:
I found somebody new
Though you mustn't believe
That means I'm over you
I know that in time
We'll figure it out
You'll read my mind
And though I'll wait for that day
Without making a sound
I don't want to be
The one who's letting you down
I just want you to know
The reason behind the rhyme
CHORUS:
It's not that
I didn't have the time
Didn't have the love
I didn't have the strength
Not to fall apart
It's not that I don't care
It's just I wouldn't dare
Cause I just don't have the heart
VERSE 2:
Love is not black and white
You'd believe that it's true
If you saw me tonight
I struggle with what is real
But the logical side
Doesn't stop what I feel
And though you're holding your breath
To be given a sign
Your heart cannot be
Broken in pieces like mine
I just want you to know
The reason behind the rhyme
CHORUS:
It's not that
I didn't have the time
Didn't have the love
I just didn't have the strength
Not to fall apart
It's not that I don't care
It's just I wouldn't dare
Cause I just don't have the heart
BRIDGE:
Loving you was more than I could stand
I was scared my heart was in your hand
But I know now
I figured it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
I must let go
CHORUS:
Yes I had the time
Yes I had the love
I just didn't have the strength
Not to fall apart
It's not that I don't care
It's just I wouldn't dare
Cause I just don't have the heart
I don't have the heart
