It's Always Been You

Who's comforting you and how
now that you've said what you've said
the questions run through my head
how did I miss the signs, when I was mislead

This time I'm gonna take a while
gonna think about it before I jump in
so many times before I've been the one
looking for something they all can't give in

Crushed just when I thought just we began
you know love and trust have to go hand in hand
and jealousy is an ugly face you have on

Why don't you calm on down, take another view
look at this from my side, before you say something
that we'll both regret, before there's no way, no turning back

And now you say you'll never trust me again
when it's always been you holding us back
(it's always been you holding us back)
(it's always been you holding us back)
(it's always been you holding us back)
Ya...it's always been you holding us back

This illusion of love, all on my behalf
wondering when you'll come on board
finally let go of your worn, torn past
learn to love, learn to love, ya trust someone
when are you going to learn to love, again

They won't know what hit them
they're just looking for love when they meet you
I know they'll put in their heart and soul
trying to make good for all your past

But it's not fair because you don't care
you just go on being scared
you don't want to lose love
I know you don't want to lose love

But you drive them away, can't you see
what you've been doing to them and me
we tried to hold on, we tried to hold on
believing in you with all that we are

But it was never enough, cuz you're so tough
you won't let anyone in, pretending it's done
it's all our fault, you won't let down your walls
not wanting your heart to be hurt again

Crushed just when I thought just we began
you know love and trust have to go hand in hand
and jealousy is an ugly face you have on

Why don't you calm on down, take another view
look at this from my side, before you say something
that we'll both regret, before there's no way, no turning back

And now you say you'll never trust me again
when it's always been you holding us back
(it's always been you holding us back)
(it's always been you holding us back)
(it's always been you holding us back)
ya...it's always been you holding us back
