I can't hold you
Like i want to
Can't hold you to the promises you make
You won't be here tonight
Or any other night
It would be a lie to say i'm not afraid
But to be afraid is something
That i've always been
The difference is this time i'm not giving in
Yes i am alone
Yes i'm on my own
But for the first time in my life
I'm gonna carry on
Yes, i'm gonna ache
But i will not break
Some things i can choose
And baby i refuse
To be lonely x2
I can't change you
I can't blame you
And this time i'm not even gonna try
You do what you have to do
I'll do the same thing too
You've got a right to say good-bye
But i've got a right to take care of myself
I realize that i come first before anyone else
Yes, i am alone
Yes, i'm on my own
But for the time in my life
I'm gonna carry on
Yes, i'm gonna ache
But i will not break
Some things i can choose
And baby i refuse
To be lonely
Lonely is a place i used to be
But i'm closing that door
I won't live there anymore
Yes, i am alone
Yes, i'm on my own
But for the first time in my life
I'm gonna carry on
Yes, i'm gonna ache
But i will not break
Some things i can choose
And baby i refuse
To be lonely x3
