There's a part of me that's dying every time I hear your name
There's a part of me that's trying to bring back your love again
There are times when I just want to run, but there's no place to hide
Even though mu heart is breaking in a million bits inside
I can make believe that none of this is true

But I can't forget you, can't break free
I only have myself to blame, nothing feels the same without you
Can't you see, we can find tomorrow what we lost yesterday
What we lost yesterday

There are nights when I lay wide awake thinking of how good it could be
Other nights I don't feel worthy of the love you gave to me
I remember not too long ago we both were here to stay
But it seems it happened overnight when I threw it all away
I can walk away and find somebody new

But I can't forget you, can't break free
I only have myself to blame, nothing feels the same without you
Can't you see, we can find tomorrow what we lost yesterday
What we lost yesterday

Hope that I can make you love me once again but I can't forget you

But I can't forget you, can't break free
I only have myself to blame, nothing feels the same without you
Can't you see, we can find tomorrow what we lost yesterday
What we lost yesterday
