B                                D#m
Our love couldn't have been any better
                               B
Each day I seemed to love you more
                                D#m
Nothing was going to break us apart
(break us apart)
B                                  D#m
The truth couldn't have been any further
                              B
From what I thought was reality
                                  D#m
Now I've been left with a broken heart
(broken heart)

                     Bmaj7
I don't know if it's right or wrong
            D#m
Somehow I'm weak and strong
            Bmaj7
Find myself on the run
                 D#m
But where do I belong

Chorus:
     Bmaj7                               C#
It's hard to believe that one day you're here
    D#m
The next you are gone
                C#      Bmaj7
It's not that clear for me to see
         C#     D#m
Why you had to leave
  Bmaj7                                    C#
I just can't believe that one day you're here
    D#m
The next you are gone
                C#      Bmaj7
It's not that clear for me to see
         C#     D#m
Why you had to leave

Rewind back to the time when you held me
The air is calm, the stars are bright
Nothing in this world can take you from me
(Take you from me)
Now stop, think of the pain that I'm feeling
I really want to feel your touch
But now I feel helpless, so helpless, baby

Since you went away, I feel
That some days still conceal it from me
I'll be free, and better off alone

Chorus

         B
I could feel you all around me
 C#       D#m
Knew your loving words surround me
     C#  B
Still I can't believe
         C#     D#m
Why you had to leave
        B
I was strong but now I'm broken
C#    D#m
Many words been left unspoken
C#      B
I just can't conceive
         C#      D#m
Why you had to leave

Chorus:
It's so hard to believe that one day you're here
The next you were gone
It's not that clear for me to see
Why you had to leave
No, I just can't believe that one day you're here
And next, you were gone
It's not that clear for me to see
Why you had to leave (Why you had to leave)
