who said it's better to love and lose it
then to never love at all
who ever made it up
then take it all back
i couldn't deal with the broken pieces
that i suffered in the fall
hope jesus left the keys under the doormat
hope it don't hurt too bad,
hope there ain't much pain,
hope there's a tunnel with a light at the end
and a choir singing my name
baby don't look so sad
it's better of this way
life just ain't worth living
if you ain't living with me
oh oh oh but baby i never
thought you would leave
the love that we had was so wonderful
but then you walked out my life
from then my heart was beating voluntarily
i'm finally checking out
i wanted to go to sleep, forgive me
cos you're the one i just couldn't live without, you hear me
so i did it, i did it
i just committed, committed, committed
my heart was beating voluntarily
i'm finally checking out
i wanted to go to sleep, forgive me
cos you're the one i just couldn't live without, you hear me
so i did it, i did it
i just committed, committed, committed
i'm staring at pictures i couldn't even bare to take them off the wall
i thought of my good-byes and wrote them all down
nothing left to leave my lone possession,
walked away and took it all
i think it's time for me to say good-bye now
hope it don't hurt too bad,
hope there ain't much pain,
hope there's a tunnel with a light at the end
and a choir singing my name
girl i bet you didn't know that
i bought you that ring
i was working up the nerves to give it to you
before your feelings had changed
oh oh oh but baby i never
thought you would leave (thought you would leave)
the love that we had was so wonderful (wonderful)
but then you walked out my life (out my life)
from then my heart was beating voluntarily
i'm finally checking out
i wanted to go to sleep, forgive me
cos you're the one i just couldn't live without, you hear me
so i did it, i did it
i just committed, committed, committed
my heart was beating voluntarily
i'm finally checking out
i wanted to go to sleep, forgive me
cos you're the one i just couldn't live without, you hear me
so i did it, i did it
i just committed, committed, committed
not everybody wants a second chance in love
(chance in love with somebody else)
they wanna love with what they got with all that they got forever
not start (over and over)
again (don't wanna start over again)
you made a promise that you would be mine (would be mine)
but all along it was all a lie (all a lie)
when you said that you love me
and i've tried to be strong (over and over again)
from then my heart was beating voluntarily
i'm finally checking out
i wanted to go to sleep, forgive me
cos you're the one i just couldn't live without, you hear me
so i did it, i did it
i just committed, committed, committed
my heart was beating voluntarily
i'm finally checking out
i wanted to go to sleep, forgive me
cos you're the one i just couldn't live without, you hear me
so i did it, i did it
i just committed, committed, committed
beating voluntarily (oh)
i'm finally checking out (i'm checking out)
i wanted to go to sleep, forgive me (i'm saying bye bye)
cos you're the one i just couldn't live without (bye bye),
you hear me
so i did it, i did it
i just committed, committed, committed
my heart was beating voluntarily (my heart was beating involuntarily)
i'm finally checking out
i wanted to go to sleep (you left me all alone), forgive me
cos you're the one i just couldn't live without (without),
you hear me
so i did it, i did it
i just committed, committed, committed
so i did it, i did it
i just committed, committed, committed
