Wish I could be the one
The one who could give you love
The kind of love you really need
Wish I could say to you
That I'll always stay with you
But baby that's not me
You need someone willing to give 
Their heart and soul to you
Promise you forever, 
Baby that's something I can't do

Oh I could say 
That I'll be all you need
But that would be a lie
I know I'd only hurt you
I know I'd only make you cry
I'm not the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye 

I hope someday you can 
Find some way to understand 
I'm only doing this for you
I don't really wanna go
But deep in my heart I know 
This is the kindest thing to do
You'll find someone 
Who'll be the one that I could never be
Who'll give you something better
Than the love you'll find with me

Oh I could say 
That I'll be all you need
But that would be a crime
I know I'd only hurt you
I know I'd only make you cry
I'm not the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye 

Leaving someone when you love someone
Is the hardest thing to do
When you love someone as much as I love you 
Oh I don't wanna leave you
Baby it tears me up inside
But I'll never be the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye 
Baby, its never gonna work out
I love you, goodbye
