You're having second thoughts I can tell by the way you look at me I can tell by what I see you no longer believe in me I'm havin' bad dreams can't seem to get back to where we used to be Sometimes it feels like we're worlds apart And I've got too much on my heart I've got too much on my heart and I don't like to feel the pain And I don't know where to start to make you love me once again I don't have time to make you understand Lord this thing is gettin' out of hand Pain shoots through me like a dart and I've got too much on my heart Don't be so cold to me I know you've changed but it's still hard for me It's too late I realize I can see it in your distant eyes You needed all of me but I can't be there like I used to be And Lord it's tearin' me apart I got too much on my heart I've got too much on my heart and I don't like to feel the pain And I don't know where to start to make you love me once again I don't have time to make you understand Lord this thing is gettin' out of hand Pain shoots through me like a dart and I've got too much on my heart Pain shoots through me like a dart and I've got too much on my heart
