Tears Of Gratitude

 

You were always there when I needed you

You helped me through the pain

But love is not dependency, so set me free from these chains

It’s been a long time since I needed your love

And I can’t carry on with these lies

Don’t make the mistake of making me stay

So all my respect for you dies

And don’t keep saying:

 

Tell me that you love me, tell me that you need me

Tell me that you’ll always be there

‘Cause baby I won’t

Just wanna say goodbye, it’s tears of gratitude that I cry

Tears of gratitude that I cry

 

How can I explain when I break your heart

You played such a part in my life?

Hurt will be so easy, oh don’t you see it’s release for me

I guess you could say that I used your love, dismissing you when I grew strong

But that was then and this is now, and I know that I’ve done you wrong

But don’t keep saying:

 

Tell me that you love me, tell me that you need me

Tell me that you’ll always be there

‘Cause baby I won’t

Tell me that you love me, tell me that you need me

Tell me that you’ll always be there

Baby I won’t

Just wanna say goodbye, it’s tears of gratitude that I cry

 

And don’t keep saying:

Tell me that you love me, tell me that you need me

Tell me that you’ll always be there

‘Cause baby I won’t

Tell me that you love me, tell me that you need me

Tell me that you’ll always be there

Baby I won’t

Just wanna say goodbye, it’s tears of gratitude that I cry

Tears of gratitude that I cry
