I Would If I Could (Demo)

You say that you would like to try again

You want me to open my heart and let us back in

Well, part of me wants to so bad, I can't stand it

But part of me don't, to be perfectly candid

I would if I could, but I can't, so I won't, but I want to

I'd love to say yes, but it's best if I don't, though I'd like to

I love you enough that I'm letting you go

I love you so much that I'm telling you no

I would if I could, but I can't, so I won't, but I want to

You're telling me things would be different this time

Well, I wish your change of heart would change my mind

I want to believe you, I'd try us again

If I really believed there was some future in it

I would if I could, but I can't, so I won't, but I want to

I'd love to say yes, but it's best if I don't, though I'd like to

I love you enough that I'm letting you go

I love you so much that I'm telling you no

I would if I could, but I can't, so I won't

But I would if I could, I do, and I don't

I would if I could, but I can't, so I won't, but I want to
