I Would If I Could

You say that you
Would like to try again
You want me to open my heart
And let us back in
Well part of me wants to
So bad I can’t stand it
But part of me don’t
To be perfectly candid 

I would if I could

But I can’t so I won’t

But I want to

I’d love to say yes

But it’s best if I don’t

Though I’d like to

I love you enough that I’m letting you go

I love you so much that I’m telling you no

I would if I could

But I can’t so I won’t

But I want to

 

You’re telling me

Things would be different this time

Well I wish your change of heart

Would change my mind

I want to believe you

I’d try us again

If I really believed

 There was some future in it
