Song Lyrics

I'm giving up, I'm going home, I'm leaving you behind
A sorry suit, no substitute, I've never been so tired
I've tried before, I wanted more, no matter what you had
If only you would have the heart to take it back
If only you would ever have the heart to ask

And now you've said, too many times
That trouble's walking by
I've met them once or twice before, but never so unkind
I'll stand aside, I'll walk behind, no matter what you had
If only you would have the heart to take it back
If only you would ever have the mind to ask

No, don't I know, that I've been this way before
I'd find my way out of any game of yours
You can't deny when it's me you're thinking of
And I'll play along just to give it up

So now I know I've said hello to Jekyll and to Hyde
The trouble is I still can't say who I want by my side
Truth be told I love them both, and I'm no better half
If only you would have the heart to take it back
If only you would ever have the heart to ask
