It's never enough to say I'm sorry
It's never enough to say I care
But I'm caught between what you wanted from me
And knowin' if I give that to ya I might just disappear
Nobody wins when everyone's losin'
It's like one step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, I can't change you're mind
It's like tryin' to turn around on a one way street
I can't give you what you want and it's killin' me
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be
It's never enough to say I love you
No it's never enough to say I tried
It's hard to believe that there's no way out for you and me
And it seems to be the story of our life
There's still time to turn this around
Should we be buildin' this up instead of tearin' it down
But I keep thinkin' maybe it's to late
Baby I'm sorry to see
Maybe we're not meant to be...

And knowing that if I give that to you

Nobody wins when everyone's losing
It's like one step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad

Maybe we're not meant to be
