Lyrics
[Intro]
I never wanted it this way
I never wanted it to cut us down like that
I never wanted it this way
[Verse 1]
Cross my heart and hope to die
Why does it feel wrong, feeling this high?
Something kicked me in the side and said
Love will leave you high and dry
[Verse 2]
Floating across the desert sky
Kissing stars while we fly by
Can you hear that voice inside saying
Love will leave you high and dry?
[Verse 3]
Called me names and said goodbye
You wonder why I never replied
Did it make you feel bad inside?
Love, it leaves you high and dry
[Verse 4]
It's the risk you take, I don't know why
It was always tearing up my mind
Can't you see I'm torn inside?
Because love, it leaves you high and dry
[Verse 5]
Plain and simple
You and I are just shattered pieces left behind
I could never say goodbye
Love will leave you high and dry
[Chorus]
I never wanted it this way
I never wanted it to cut us down like that
I never wanted it this way
