It's time to move on
Maybe I've been playing this game too long
You've been lying to me all along
Kept me needy, planted this fear in my heart.
It was bound to go wrong from the start.
I pretended I was still in charge
As it turns out I'm not that smart
But I'll tell you what I won't do
Come crawling back to you
But I'll tell you what I won't do
Come crawling back to you
Cos I'm breaking the spell
Here's where I draw the line
You will have to find another soul
To play your tricks on
I'm breaking the spell
Sending you straight back to hell.
It's time to say goodbye
The shadows grow longer as the years are passing by
You've been pulling me back too long
Still I blame myself for all the things that went wrong
I was bound to go wrong from the start
You can change the man but not the heart
You can kill his dreams but not his soul
So I'll tell you what I won't do
Come crawling back to you
So I'll tell you what I won't do
Come crawling back to you
Cos I'm breaking the spell
Here's where I draw the line
You will have to find another soul
To play your tricks on
I'm breaking the spell
Sending you straight back to hell.
I was bound to go wrong from the start
You can change the man but not the heart
You can kill his dreams but not his soul
So I'll tell you what I won't do
I won't come crawling back to you
So I'll tell you what I won't do
Come crawling back to you
Cos I'm breaking the spell
Here's where I draw the line
You will have to find another soul
I'm breaking the spell
I'm breaking the spell
