I don't mean to tear you apart,   but I hit a nerve.   Last night you weren't sleeping.   I didn't mean to hurt you.      Another time I might have been more open   with the things that I was feeling,   But I was never one for sharing.   Taken out of context was the meaning   Of our whole relationship,   and now I must be leaving.      I don't mean to tear you apart,    but I hit a nerve.   Last night you weren't sleeping...   I didn't mean to hurt you.   The choices that I make    are mine to live with.   I didn't want to argue...   That's why I never told you.      That's why I never told you   What I was really up to   And now we haven't spoken   Since, you and I, we're broken.      So there you were...   You closed your eyes...   You had to know that I was lying.   I won't be back this time, please,   Try to understand...   I don't want to know what you were dreaming...   Don't want to know what you were seeing...   Cuz then I'll know what I've been missing.      That's why I never told you   What I was really up to.   And now we haven't spoken   Since, you and I, we're broken.      I don't mean to tear you apart,   but I hit a nerve.   Last night you weren't sleeping.   I didn't mean to hurt you.
