Stop hurting me Now don't you think you're overdoin' it? I still care I must admit I know that if we ever break up I know you'll never make up And I'm sorry, so sorry But my heart can't take it no more Half the times you lied You know how many times I cried Lonely tears, it brought me misery Maybe one day you'll realize Just how I really tried Darling to make you happy I gave my heart You only took it and destroyed it And now you say it's me you love Yet you cheated and deceived me And now you say you want to keep me And I'm sorry, so sorry But my heart can't take it no more My heart can't take it no more My heart can't take it no more
