Lyrics
I DON'T WANNA WAKE UP EVERY MORNING
AND ONLY THINK OF YOU
AND I DON'T WANNA FEEL THIS HURT I'M FEELING
OR HAVE TO FACE THE TRUTH
IF I COULD JUST ERASE MY MIND
OR MAYBE JUST GO BACK IN TIME
ANYTHING TO KEEP FROM MISSING YOU
I DON'T WANNA LOVE YOU ANYMORE
BUT I DO
I DON'T WANNA KNOW WHAT LIFE IS LIKE
LIVING WITHOUT YOU
AND I DON'T WANNA LOOK INTO A MIRROR
AND BE STARING AT A FOOL
IF I COULD WAKE UP FROM THIS DREAM
PRETEND I WAS IMAGINING
THEN THIS HEART WOULD NOT BE TORN IN TWO
I DON'T WANNA LOVE YOU ANYMORE
BUT I DO
EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE MILES AWAY
AND I'M NOT ALLOWED TO SPEAK YOUR NAME
THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT I'M NOT LOVING YOU
I DO
