Anything for you Though you're not here Since you said we're through It seems like years Time keeps draggin' on and on And forever's been and gone Still I can't figure what went wrong I'd still do anything for you I'll play your game You hurt me through and through But you can have your way I can pretend each time I see you That I don't care and I don't need you And though you'll never see me cryin' You know inside I feel like dying And I'd do anything for you In spite of it all I've learned so much from you You made me strong But don't even think that I don't love you That for one minute I forgot you But sometimes things don't work out right And you just have to say goodbye I hope you find someone to please you Someone who'll care and never leave you But if that someone ever hurts you You just might need a friend to turn to And I'd do anything for you I'll give you up If that's what I should do To make you happy I can pretend each time I see you That I don't care and I don't need you And though inside I feel like dying You know you'll never see me cryin' But don't even think that I don't love you That for one minute I forgot you But sometimes things don't work out right And you just have to say goodbye
