Love had ended Can't be mended All along the line I've been true to you Even though for some time I knew we were through I was feeling That love had ended Can't be mended But I can't bear to see you cry The feeling's gone It's been missing too long But I just don't have the heart I just don't have the heart to tell you It's such a shame That it's ended this way But I just don't have the heart I just don't have the heart to tell you There'll be no goodbyes There are no words to say When you realise That I'm far away You'll be hurting Like I've been hurting The truth was burning But I just can't say goodbye The feeling's gone It's been missing too long But I just don't have the heart I just don't have the heart to tell you It's such a shame That it's ended this way But I just don't have the heart I just don't have the heart to tell you Ooh but I just don't have the heart I just don't have the heart to tell you If I stopped to think about The good times that we shared I could fool myself believing That somehow love, love was still there Ooh (love, love, love, love, love had ended) (love, love, love, love, love had ended) I was feeling That love had ended Can't be mended But I can't bear to see you cry (repeat chorus)
