I was there when you cried like a baby
When you thought that maybe
Things weren't going your way
I was there when you asked me
Just 'cause you asked me
And I didn't hesitate'.
Now that I need you
You turn away'.
Like I was nothing, like it was a big mistake
Come on baby, you know it ain't right
Tell me how do you sleep at night?
I won't behave'.
Sit quietly by, while you take everything
That I keep inside of me
I won't be still, oh no, not I
'cause there's no way that I'd stay here
I'd rather die than to love you
I'd rather die than to love you
You know that I would rather die
It isn't fair
To take someone's heart, tear it apart
Use it like you don't care
How does it feel to be hurt?
It's gonna get worse'.
It's gonna get ugly I swear
How many tears can one person cry?
How much is enough'.
When's it time to say good-bye?
Come on baby, you know it ain't right
Tell me how do you sleep at night
I won't behave'.
Sit quietly by, while you take everything
That I keep inside of me
I won't be still, oh no, not I
'cause there's no way that I'd stay here
I'd rather die than to love you
I'd rather die than to love you
