One, not ready
And I understand
Dreaming and heady
You had me in hand

Whatever I believe
It's hard for me to breathe

Tried three times, grew three new hearts
Three times shattered into tiny parts
Now this is how it has to be
'Cause I couldn't love you
I couldn't love you into loving me

Two, too scary
And I'm standing strong
My heart is weary
But you can't be wrong

Three, third time's the charm
And I'm lost at sea
Yes, it gets real hard
In the name of feeling free

Whatever I believe
It's hard for me to breathe

Tried three times, grew three new hearts
Three times shattered into tiny parts
Now this is how it has to be
'Cause I couldn't love you
I couldn't love you into loving me

There's always tomorrow if you're living like today
When the things you do match up with what you say
You had no choice but to turn and run away
No one ever taught you how to hold on, how to stay

Tried three times, grew three new hearts
Three times shattered into tiny parts
Now this is how it has to be
'Cause I couldn't love you
I couldn't love you
Now this is how it has to be
'Cause I couldn't love you
I couldn't love you into loving me
