I can see that you've been crying

You can't hide it with a lie

What's the use in you denying

That what you have is wrong?

I heard him promise you forever

But forever's come and gone

Baby, he would say whatever

It takes to keep you blind

To the truth between the lines

Oh, I will love you more than that

I won't say the words, then take them back

Don't give loneliness a chance

Baby, listen to me when I say

I will love you more than that

Baby, you deserve much better

What's the use in holding on?

Don't you see it's now or never

'Cause I just can't be friends

Baby, knowing in the end

That I will love you more than that

I won't say the words, then take them back

(Can't take them back)

Don't give loneliness a chance

Baby, listen to me when I say (hey!)

There's not a day that passes by

I don't wonder why we haven't tried

It's not too late to change your mind

So take my hand, don't say goodbye

I will love you more than that

I won't say the words, then take them back

Oh, I will love you more than that

I won't say the words, (no-no) then take them back

Don't give loneliness a chance

Baby, listen to me when I say

I will love you more than that

Oh, I will love you more than that (more than that)

I won't say the words, then take them back (back)

Don't give loneliness a chance (a chance)

Baby, listen to me when I say

I will love you more than that
