I never meant for you to get hurt And how I tried Oh, how I tried I could never give you just what you deserved Another man, would surely learn I know these words, they only serve to twist the knife But I will try, to make them heard Maybe it's better now I've gone away Maybe it's not Oh, who can say And though it's hard, for me to say I know you're better off this way And when I told her I didn't love her anymore She cried And when I told her, her kisses were not like before She cried And when I told her another girl had caught my eye She cried And I kissed her, with a kiss that could only mean goodbye And though it's hard, for me to say Maybe you're better off this way And though it's hard, for me to say I know you're better off this way Get away Get away Get away Get away Get away Get away
