Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was so high, I did not recognize
The fire burning in her eyes
The chaos that controlled my mind
Whispered goodbye as she got on a plane
Never to return again
But always in my heart (Oh)
[Chorus]
This love has taken its toll on me
She said goodbye
Too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
And I have no choice
'Cause I won't say goodbye anymore
[Chorus]
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
[Verse 2]
I tried my best to feed her appetite
Keep her coming every night
So hard to keep her satisfied
Oh, kept playing love like it was just a game
Pretending to feel the same
Then turn around and leave again
But, uh-oh
[Chorus]
This love has taken its toll on me
She said goodbye
Too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
And I have no choice
'Cause I won't say goodbye anymore
[Chorus]
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
[Bridge]
I'll fix these broken things
Repair your broken wings
And make sure everything's all right (It's all right, it's all right)
My pressure on your hips
Sinking my fingertips
Into every inch of you
Because I know that's what you want me to do
[Chorus]
And this love has taken its toll on me
She said goodbye
Too many times before
Her heart is breaking in front of me
And I have no choice
'Cause I won't say goodbye anymore
[Chorus]
This love has taken its toll on me (She)
She said goodbye
Too many times before
And my heart is breaking in front of me
She said goodbye
Too many times before
[Chorus]
This love has taken its toll on me
She said goodbye
Too many times before
Her heart is breaking in front of me
And I have no choice
'Cause I won't say goodbye anymore
