Couldn't have given you more
I tried to love you
Like you loved me
Maybe for wrong reasons, maybe

At first it was beautiful
Every girl has a fairytale
But then you wake up and see
It's not all it's cracked up to be

It turned into screamin' days
And solo nights just wasn't right
I didn't really wanna see you
Was happy when you were leavin' yeah

I liked how it felt when I was by myself
And that's the way I wanna be
So please, don't beg and plead
Just let it be, just let it be

I gotta go, I gotta leave
So please don't make it hard for me
I've gave enough, I'm tired of love
I gotta let it go

I gotta go, I gotta leave
So please don't make it hard for me
I've gave enough, I'm tired of love
I gotta let it go

Couldn't have given you more
Gave you everything
There wasn't anything
That you were denied, yeah

But you should never give it all
Cause sometimes there's nothin' left
But bitterness and regret
And it just ain't worth it

Cause then there's the sudden change
Out of nowhere, it seems
Never knew I could be so mean
But that's just how far you pushed me, hey hey

You say it just isn't fair
And you didn't know
You need to take responsibility for your own
Cause you're grown and you known, yeah

I gotta go, I gotta leave
So please don't make it hard for me
I've gave enough, I'm tired of love
I gotta let it go

I gotta go, I gotta leave
So please don't make it hard for me
I've gave enough, I'm tired of love
I gotta let it go

Now I take the blame
For tryin' to stay and work it out
Should-a left before it got complicated
Should-a left when there was still some happiness

Yes I take the blame
For havin' faith in our relationship
I thought it made me complete
But the truth is, I'm complete without it
Yeah yeah

I gotta go, I gotta leave
So please don't make it hard for me
I've gave enough, I'm tired of love
I gotta let it go

I gotta go, I gotta leave
So please don't make it hard for me
I've gave enough, I'm tired of love
I gotta let it go

I gotta go, I gotta leave
So please don't make it hard for me
I've gave enough, I'm tired of love
I gotta let it go

I gotta go, I gotta leave
So please don't make it hard for me
I've gave enough, I'm tired of love
I gotta let it go
