By Myself

[Verse 1]
I didn't wanna have to make you cry
I didn't want to say goodbye
I couldn't bare to face the truth
But I was me and you were you

[Verse 2]
I didn't wanna have to let you down
I didn't want to hang around
Pretending we would make it through
'Cause you lost me and I lost you

[Chorus]
I'm by myself, my heart is shaking
Was I mistaken by leaving today?
Beside myself, our love is faded
I'm slowly breaking away

[Verse 3]
I didn't wanna have to start and then
I didn't want to face the end
I didn't want to hold the pain
I can't afford to feel again

[Verse 4]
This is where I'm in my life
And I know somehow i'll get by
I didn't want to feel the cold
But, babe, I have to let you go

[Chorus]
I'm by myself, my heart is shaking
Was I mistaken by leaving today
Beside myself, our love is faded
I'm slowly breaking away

[Bridge]
Forgiven me if
I've never got to say i'm sorry
Forgive me girl
'Cause I won't be around

I'm by myself, beside myself
Our love is faded, I'm slowly breaking away

[Chorus]
I'm by myself, my heart is shaking
Was I mistaken by leaving today
Beside myself, our love is faded
I'm slowly breaking away

[Outro]
I didn't wanna have to make you cry
