Song information

Lyrics

I don't know how I can do this
What am I supposed to say?
You have been my dream for so long
Now that dream is slipping away
I don't want to let you go
It's only that I know I must
I can't hardly get the words out
Baby is this the end of us?

You know that I want you
You know that I need you baby
You know that I love you
So why isn't that enough?

I've been sleeping in the daytime
I've been ripping at the seams
Wishing you would haunt me
And you would tell me this was all a dream

Wishing you were here beside me
What I would give to hold you tight
But nothing I can do or say
Will change the truth tonight

You know that I want you
You know that I need you baby
You know that I love you
So why isn't that enough?

If I want you
And I need you
And I love you
And I want that to be enough

Because I want you
And I need you
And I love you
And I want that to be enough

Yes I want you
And I need you
And I love you
And I want that to be enough

(2X)

I don't want to let you go
It's only that I know I must
I can hardly get the words out
Baby is this the end of us?

You know that I want you
You know that I need you baby
You know that I love you
So why isn't that enough?
Why isn't that enough?
I wish it was enough
