If I Can't Have You

Another picture on the wall,
Another life I used to lead
Another me that was untrue,
With every memory of you,
Broken in my sleep.
Another moment lost in time
You talked of love and I agreed,
So many chances passed us by,
Now we’ve lost the strength to try
Your love was never mine to keep
We can’t hold on, we’re losing track
So where’s the road to take us back
And how did we forget what we believed
If I can’t have you,
If the love has gone
If you just can’t find it in yourself to carry on,
If you have to leave,
Then take my life forever,
'Cos I will never be with anybody else.
If I can’t have you
With every night I lie awake,
With every day we grow apart
Is there a promise we can’t break?
We never learned from our mistakes,
from the very start
Don’t look back on yesterday,
'Cos that time has been and gone,
Think of what tomorrow holds,
Without you if it feels so wrong,
And I can’t carry on
