Intro

Verse 1

Well you keep running 'round with my heart

And baby, it just ain't right

For me to sit alone at home

Each and every night

For that one little phonecall

That I know won't ever come

And the feeling hits me so hard

That it leaves my body numb

Chorus

But bay, I know..

That this can't last

I know, changes gonna come

No, this can't last forever

Forever's much too long

Verse 2

Well I tried and tried to please you

But still, it did no good

Darling what is there that I can do

To make you act the way you should

Because I can still remember

The way you held me tight

But I still can't help but wonder

If you hold someone else tonight

Chorus

But bay, I know..

That this can't last

I know, changes gonna come

No, this can't last forever

Forever's much too long

Bridge

Well now, too much givin' to you

And not enough takin' for me

I've been wantin' your love for so long

That I was too blind to see

Verse 3

All the guys in town you dated

Well, they were just like me

Why can't I be the one you love

Instead of just your in-between

Darling I can take the heartache

And the pain you put me through

But I don't think I can take

The thought of ever losing you

Chorus

But bay, I know..

That this can't last

I know, changes gonna come

No, this can't last forever

Forever's much too long

Forever's much too long

Forever's much too long
