For the first time, in such a long time
I've been feelin' there's some reason
To hold on through the night
And for the first time since you broke this heart of mine
I find myself believin'
It's really gonna be alright
Now you're askin' me to let you walk back into my life
Something I can't bring myself to do

Cause it's been hard enough gettin' over you
Ya know you kept me holdin' on till the end
Oh it's been hard enough gettin' over you
I don't think that I could say goodbye again

I could trust you, but it's out of my hands
I once believed your promises
Believed in every word you said
I still love you but my heart won't take the chance
That all the pain I've left behind me,
Might be waiting for me up ahead
Just remember it was you who walked right out of my life
No you don't know what I've been through

But it's been hard enough gettin' over you
Ya know you kept me holdin' on till the end
Oh it's been hard enough gettin' over you
I don't think that I could say goodbye again

I made a promise to myself
And this one, I'm not gonna break
I've made it without you, and I'm not about to
Just turn around and make the same mistake

Cause it's been hard enough gettin' over you
Ya know you kept me holdin' on till the end
Oh it's been hard enough gettin' over you
I don't think that I could say goodbye
I don't think I could say goodbye
I know that I can't say goodbye again
