I can't hold you

Like i want to

Can't hold you to the promises you make

You won't be here tonight

Or any other night

It would be a lie to say i'm not afraid

But to be afraid is something

That i've always been

The difference is this time i'm not giving in

Yes i am alone

Yes i'm on my own

But for the first time in my life

I'm gonna carry on

Yes, i'm gonna ache

But i will not break

Some things i can choose

And baby i refuse

To be lonely x2

I can't change you

I can't blame you

And this time i'm not even gonna try

You do what you have to do

I'll do the same thing too

You've got a right to say good-bye

But i've got a right to take care of myself

I realize that i come first before anyone else

Yes, i am alone

Yes, i'm on my own

But for the time in my life

I'm gonna carry on

Yes, i'm gonna ache

But i will not break

Some things i can choose

And baby i refuse

To be lonely

Lonely is a place i used to be

But i'm closing that door

I won't live there anymore

Yes, i am alone

Yes, i'm on my own

But for the first time in my life

I'm gonna carry on

Yes, i'm gonna ache

But i will not break

Some things i can choose

And baby i refuse

To be lonely x3
