Lyrics

Every night and every day
My heart feels the pain
I wake up to the thought of you
And I call your name
No one ever made me feel the way you do
Nothing in this world I wouldn't do for you
But now I've got to let go
We don't stand a chance
In this wild romance, my tenderheart
Maybe it's wiser to walk away and love again
With my tenderheart
We don't stand a chance
In this wild romance, oh, it hurts so bad
Knowing that I'm not the one you want
I can't hold on to my tenderheart
I never thought I'd be the one
Who would play the fool
But I know love can feel so good
And can be so cruel
It's clear to me the writing is on the wall
It's clear to me that you don't really love me at all
And I can't go on this way
We don't stand a chance
In this wild romance, my tenderheart
Maybe it's wiser to walk away and love again
With my tenderheart
We don't stand a chance
In this wild romance, oh, it hurts so bad
Knowing that I'm not the one you want
I can't hold on to my tenderheart
I'm standing at the door
Don't need this hurt no more
I'm crying out in vain
'Cause you don't feel my pain, oh
Maybe it was always gonna be this way
Maybe I'll look back and understand some day
But now I've got to say
We don't stand a chance
In this wild romance, my tenderheart
Maybe it's wiser to walk away and love again
With my tenderheart
We don't stand a chance
In this wild romance, oh, it hurts so bad
Knowing that I'm not the one you want
I can't hold on to my tenderheart, my tenderheart
