I  didn't mean to hurt you
I didn't mean to make you cry
I didn't mean to lead you to my heart
Knowing that the love has run dry

I like your company very much
I like having you around
You made my mind think of beautiful things
Whenever I heard a sad love song

I wanted to hold you
You made me feel alright
But I became really scared
When you held on so tight

You deserve beautiful things
You deserve the best
But I couldn't promise you anything
Financially my life was still a mess

So I started having these doubts
And I felt that I was not worthy of you
If I couldn't reach the high of success that I look for
Then how can I make your dreams come true

I didn't want you to look at your friends and family
And see how well off they are
And the guy that holds your heart
Can't even afford to buy a car

Some people like to say silly things like
" Love is all you need" man
But what good is a man
If he lets his girl walk around with an empty purse in her hand

I had my pride and I love you too
And I wanted to be with you so bad
But I wasn't sure when I would find success
And depriving you of the necessities you need would only me you sad

So as you become closer to me
I went further to the other side
And I learn how to act cold as ice
And bottled up my feelings to hide

So as you open your heart to love
I act as if I was a fool
You were lighting the fire of love
But I was acting stubborn as a mule

A man who loves a woman
Would want to give her the world
And although she doesn't need the world
He will still want to make her feel special because she is his girl

And if he knows that his life would be tough
Then he would rather be alone
Because love is not enough
And angry is a dog without a bone


Love cannot pay the bills
Love cannot buy her nice things and give her a home
You can love her and treat her like a queen
But she would always be a servant if you can't give her a throne

So I started to ignore you as much as I can
I walk on the other side of the street
If I see you walking the road
Just so that we wouldn't meet

I was hoping you would forget me
But you said that you like my trait
And when I pretend not to like you
You just didn't take the bait

Then you ask me to be honest
And tell you why I stop loving you
So I had to be honest
And that I can't guarantee to make your dreams come true

Deep inside I wanted to love you
I wanted to live in your world
I wanted to be your diamonds
And you would be my pearls

But love is not worth much
And I can't have you living on empty
But if we continue to be as we are now and dont ask for more
Then one day I promise to be the person that you want me to be

I will build a foundation
And steady the ship to shore
And I would give you my heart
And love you for evermore
