It's Tearing Me Apart

IT'S TEARING ME APART - Written by Carroll Bryant

Every word that you seem to say

Has a way of bull dozing through my mind

Every glance that you seem to make 

Can take my heart to places no one else can find 

And so I keep on asking myself

If I will ever get to hold you in my arms

I always seem to find myself letting it go

And it's breaking my heart

And it's tearing me apart 

There comes a time when everybody cries

It's just a thing we all must do

Pain escapes from out of our eyes

It happens to me and it happens to you

It's just a shame we can't be together

I'll keep on dreaming my whole life away

 Maybe we could have lasted forever

And it's breaking my heart

And it's tearing me apart 

Every breath of air that you breathe 

Lingers in the room long after you leave

Every day of the sun that filters through

It tries to avoid me until I'm near you

I only wanted you to stay but you went away 

Yes you went away

And so I keep on asking myself

If I will ever get to hold you in my arms

I always seem to find myself letting it go

And it's breaking my heart

And it's tearing me apart
