I'm giving up, I'm going home, I'm leaving you behind
A sorry suit, no substitute, I've never been so tired
I've tried before, I wanted more, no matter what you had
If only you you you would have the heart to take it back
If only you you you would ever have the heart to ask
And now you've said too many times that trouble's walking by
I've met them once or twice before, but never so unkind
I'll stand beside, I'll walk behind, no matter what you had
If only you you you would have the heart to take it back
If only you you you would ever have the mind to ask
No, don't I know that I've been this way before?
I'd find my way out of any game of yours
You can't deny when it's me you're thinking of
And I'll play along just to give it up
So now I know I've said hello to Jekyll and to Hyde
The trouble is I still can't say who I want by my side
All truth be told, I love them both and I'm no better half
If only you you you would have the heart to take me back
If only you you you would ever have the heart to ask
