Оригинален текст
it's another quiet friday night (i'm waitin')
alone again, here i am
not a trace of you in sight (i'm missin')
excuses on the back of your hand
it's another so meaningless fight (i question)
and forget what we were fightin' for
but you don't really here me
even when i'm screamin'
you know i deserve much more
all the empty promises you say or do
i think we're runnin' out of time
and i wanna believe that you'll follow through
i don't wanna walk the line
(chorus)
why you gotta make it so hard for me
to love you like i can?
why you gotta see me walk away
to make you understand?
you only get one chance, one heart,
one love you can call on true, baby
why you gotta make it so hard for me to love you?
why you gotta make it so hard?
just to say you're a child (i mean it)
just to keep me holdin' on
baby, just open you eyes (and see it)
what we have is so, so strong
all the empty promises you say or do
i don't wanna waste my time
and i wanna believe that you'll follow through
and i don't wanna walk the line, tell me
(chorus)
why you gotta make it so hard for me
to love you like i can?
why you gotta see me walk away
to make you understand?
you only get one chance, one heart,
one love you can call on true, baby
why you gotta make it so hard for me to love you?
why you gotta make it so hard
(bridge)
something has got to change
i'm not gonna lose my way, tell me
why should i stay?
should i?
why should i wait?
for my heart has had all it can take
(repeat chorus)
