Verse 1)
I told them all my heart was gone,
That it belonged to you alone,
Turned away love at my door,
For something I believed was more.
You had a child, I gave her mine,
A borrowed love I made divine,
I built a life inside your name,
But you were never in the same.
(Pre-Chorus)
You said you’d change, I chose to stay,
Believed every word you’d say,
Crossed the distance, crossed the pain,
Just to stand in your rain.
(Chorus)
Monica, you broke me slow,
Loved you more than you could know,
Gave you all I had inside,
While you loved someone else in silence.
Now I see what I ignored,
I was fighting a losing war,
And it hurts to let you go…
But I deserve a love that shows.
(Verse 2)
I saw the truth behind your eyes,
Hidden well between your lies,
Tears you cried, they felt so real,
But they couldn’t change what I could feel.
You made me question what I’m worth,
Like I had nothing on this earth,
But love like mine don’t come twice…
You lost it, and that’s your price.
(Pre-Chorus)
I gave you chances, more than fair,
But you were never really there,
Now I’m walking out your door,
I won’t beg you anymore.
(Chorus)
Monica, you broke me slow,
Loved you more than you could know,
Gave you all I had inside,
While you loved someone else in silence.
Now I see what I ignored,
I was fighting a losing war,
And it hurts to let you go…
But I deserve a love that shows.
(Bridge)
Maybe one day you’ll look back,
At the love you chose to lack,
But I won’t be there anymore,
I’ve closed and locked that door.
You can’t fix what you let die,
You can’t heal a last goodbye…
I gave you truth, you gave me pain,
I won’t make that mistake again.
(Final Chorus)
Monica, I’m letting go,
Of the man you’ll never know,
All the love I gave for free,
Now I’m giving back to me.
Yeah it broke me, made me fall…
But I survived through it all,
And one day I’ll thank the pain…
For teaching me to love again.
(Outro)
So this is where I say goodbye,
No more tears, no more “why”…
You had my heart, you let it go…
Now I’
