It Didn't Work Out That Way

I wanted to give you both some room
But it didn’t work out that way
I hoped it all would work out soon,
What can I say?
Honest I tried to love you a little more today
But it didn’t work out that way.

I wanted to hide like children do
But it didn’t work out that way.
I couldn’t see your point of view
What can I say?
Honest I tried to love you a little more today
But it didn’t work out that way.

Just let me hear you say
That a new day could be dawning.
Is love so far away
That it’s too late to heed your warning.

I wanted to try to keep you here
But it didn’t work out that way.
How could I watch you disappear
What can I say?

Honest I tried to love you a little more today
But it didn’t work out ……
That way.
