Had every word prepared Wasn't even scared Rehearsed the scene a million times and still felt no where You were just down the hall Not knowing at all What was about to happen when I laid it on the line
'Cause it's written on my face Though you see it in my eyes How do you tell someone you love What's gonna hurt Don't wanna hurt
So when I'm too long And telling you what's wrong I tryed and couldn't bring myself (It shoulda been simple) So many times I've tryed The time was never right It was so complicated (It shoulda been simple)
Oh-oh oh-oh (It shoulda been simple) Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh (It shoulda been simple) [X2]
There's no time for fear visions kinda happen No matter how this ends today, I wanna leave here as friends It's not that I don't love you (Don't love you) Don't think that I don't care (Don't care) We were trying to fly a plane, the wings were just not there
And it's written on my face Though you see it in my eyes How do you tell someone you love What's gonna hurt What's gonna hurt
So when I'm too long And telling you, "Be strong." I tryed and couldn't bring myself (It shoulda been simple) So many times I've tryed The time was never right It was so complicated (It shoulda been simple)
Oh-oh oh-oh (It shoulda been simple) Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh (It shoulda been simple) [X2]
Remember the day that we said that we wouldn't change We changed 'Cause nothing's the same anymore since that day That day
