Not Meant to Be

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

Nobody wins when everyone's losing

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

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

Nobody wins when everyone's losing

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

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

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 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
