Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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 knowing if I give that to you I might just disappear
[Verse 2]
Nobody wins when everyone's losing
[Verse 3]
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 your mind
It's like trying to turn around on a one way street
I can't give you what you want and it's killing me
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be
[Verse 4]
It's never enough to say, "I love you"
No, it's never enough to say, "I try"
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
[Verse 5]
Nobody wins when everyone's losing
[Verse 6]
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 your mind
It's like trying to turn around on a one way street
I can't give you what you want and it's killing me
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be
[Verse 7]
There's still time to turn this around
Should we be building this up instead of tearing it down?
But I keep thinking maybe it's too late
[Verse 8]
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 your mind
[Verse 9]
It's like trying to turn around on a one way street
I can't give you what you want and it's killing me
And I, I finally see
Baby, we're not meant to be
It's like one step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I'm, baby, I'm sorry to see
Maybe we're not meant to be
