you're everything I thought you never were
and nothing like I thought you could have been
but still, you live inside of me, so tell me how is that?
you're the only one I wish I could forget
the only one I love to not forgive
and though you break my heart, you're the only one
and though there are times when I hate you
‘cause I can't erase
the times that you hurt me and put tears on my face
and even now, while I hate you, it pains me to say
I know I'll be there at the end of the day

I don't wanna be without you, babe
I don't want a broken heart
don't wanna take a breath without you, babe
I don't wanna play that part
I know that I love you, but let me just say
I don't wanna love you in no kind of way, no no
I don't want a broken heart
I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl
no, no, no broken-hearted girl

there's something that I feel I need to say
but up til' now I've always been afraid that you would never come around
and still I wanna put this out

you say you've got the most respect for me
but, sometimes I feel you're not deserving of me
and still, you're in my heart
but you're the only one
and yes, there are times when I hate you, but I don't complain
‘cause I've been afraid that you would walk away
oh, but now I don't hate you
I'm happy to say
that I will be there at the end of the day

I don't wanna be without you, babe
I don't want a broken heart
don't wanna take a breath without you, babe
I don't wanna play that part
I know that I love you, but let me just say
I don't wanna love you in no kind of way, no no
I don't want a broken heart
I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl
no, no, no broken-hearted girl

now I'm at a place I thought I'd never be, ooh
I'm living in a world that's all about you and me, yeah
ain't gotta be afraid, my broken heart is free to spread my wings and fly away, away with you....

I don't wanna be without my baby
I don't want a broken heart
don't wanna take a breath without my baby
I don't wanna play that part
I know that I love you, but let me just say
I don't wanna love you in no kind of way, no no
I don't want a broken heart
I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl
no, no, no broken-hearted girl
broken-hearted girl
no, no, no broken-hearted girl
