You've been my life to me
My very soul and my heart
But lately something's come over you
And it's tearing me apart
Darlin', I feel you growing away from me
More and more each day
Whatever you want me to be, I'll be
If it keeps you from growing away from me
Verse 2: ("Even though you say ")
Believe me, I would let you go if I could
But I don't know if it's worse being lonely
Than having you here in body only
Verse 3: ("It's no use pretending ")
