[Verse 1]
I should leave you
After everything that we've been through
But you & I, we just don't wanna walk away

There is so much to love
And it's tearing us apart
Though we both know what choice we should make

I don't wanna be the one who calls you to say...

[Chorus]
If life's a book
Then I guess I'm the author
I'm not growing old
With a chip on my shoulder

I made you believe
This was easy for me
So, I don't know what to tell you
'Cause I was so sure of us

[Verse 2]
Did you mean it
When you said there were no more secrets
I can tell there's something that you wanna say

There are words on your chest
I can hear them on your breath
Though you swallow them to keep me safe

You say "One more word I might just ask you to stay"

[Chorus]
If life's a book
Then I guess I'm the author
I'm not growing old
With a chip on my shoulder

I made you believe
This was easy for me
So, I don't know what to tell you
'Cause I was so sure of us

[Bridge]
Don't cry
Not another tear from your eye
Even if it kills me tonight
I will visit you one more time

Don't you
Don't you understand
We don't have a chance
How do I let go
When you're all I have?

I can't let go

[Chorus]
If life's a book
Then I guess I'm the author
I'm not growing old
With a chip on my shoulder

I made you believe
This was easy for me
So, I don't know what to tell you
'Cause I was so sure of us
