I Wish I Could But I Can't Songtext / Lyric

There you go again... comin' on to me

Like nothing here has changed

You just don't wanna know, can't you see I've let you go, baby



Get it thru your head... we're history

You've misinterpreted

The way I feel for you so what's a girl to do



I'm sorry if I sound cruel and insensitive

But I've got my life to live



(I wish I could but I can't)

Say it in a nice way, end it the right way

But you're not hearing what I say

(wish you would but you won't)

Boy why won't you wake up, there'll be no kiss and make up...

This time

Wish I could but I can't






Won't make promises that I can't keep

I can't go back again (can't be that weak)

Gotta be strong while I can but you don't understand



I'm not a damsel in a tower, you can't rescue me

With apologies and flowers

I'm tryin to make it clear, I just don't want you here



I'm sorry if I sound cruel and insensitive

But I've got my life to live



chorus



Made a promise to myself

That any self respecting girl

Would never let herself be put in a position

where she

Stays in a love that's wrong

Stays where she don't belong

She's weak when she should be strong
