Safely watching from a distance, now I see.
Why he's chosen to live a life outside of me.
His hand upon her cheek,
And his eyes have never looked at me that way.
How can he take all of me,
When his heart belongs to someone else?

And I'm trying to pretend
There's a reason that I'm still here,
But I don't know why.
I don't know why.

Broken promise, broken heart, yet I remain.
It hurts no less knowing that love is a losing game.
He's lying with me, though I know she's on his mind.
How can he say, "Baby I love you,"
When it's all a lie?

And I'm so tired of trying to pretend
There's a reason that I'm still here,
But I don't know why.
I don't know why. (x2)

I'm so naive to believe in love.
When goodbye is so comfortable,
On the tip of my tongue.
I don't understand why I'm never enough
To make him stay.
Just throw my love away.

And I don't know why.
I don't know why. (x2)
