I met you at the restaurant on East and 45th
I felt my hands start shaking, I couldn't look you in the eyes
You asked me: What's the matter? You've never looked so terrified
Well, it's all those nights I stayed awake
Every compromise only I would make
I tried to hold us both together, I tried
Don't wanna break your heart, but I keep breaking mine
Oh, I can't love you and love me at the same time
I wanna fix it all, but I can't save both sides
Oh, I can't love you and love me at the same time
I wanna love, I wanna love, I wanna love you
I wanna love, I wanna love, I wanna love you
I wanna love, I wanna love, I wanna love you
Oh, I can't love you and love me at the same time
I wish that it was simple, that it was someone's fault
When both of us are slipping, it's always me who takes the fall
Is it self-preservation, or is it just self-sabotage?
Well, it's all those nights I stayed awake
Every compromise only I would make
I tried to hold us both together, I tried
Don't wanna break your heart, but I keep breaking mine
Oh, I can't love you and love me at the same time
I wanna fix it all, but I can't save both sides
Oh, I can't love you and love me at the same time
I wanna love, I wanna love, I wanna love you
I wanna love, I wanna love, I wanna love you
I wanna love, I wanna love, I wanna love you
Oh, I can't love you and love me at the same time
So, go your own way, and I'll go mine
(Oh, I can't love you and love me at the same time)
I know you won't change, and neither can I
(Oh, I can't love you and love me at the same time)
So, go your own way, and I'll go mine
(Oh, I can't love you and love me at the same time)
I know you won't change, and neither can I
(Oh, I can't love you and love me at the same time)
