There are times when a woman
has to say what's on her mind
Even though she knows how much it's gonna hurt

Before I say another word
let me tell you, I love you
Let me hold you close and

say these words as gently as I can

There's been another man

that I've needed and I've loved
But that doesn't mean I love you less
And he knows he can't possess me

and he knows he never will
There's just this empty place inside of me
that only he can fill


Torn between two lovers, feelin' like a fool
Lovin' both of you is breakin' all the rules

Torn between two lovers, feelin' like a fool
Lovin' you both is breakin' all the rules


You mustn't think you've failed me
Just because there's someone else
You were the first real love I ever had

And all the things I ever said
I swear they still are true
For no one else can have the part of me I gave to you


I couldn't really blame you if you turned
and walked away

But with everything I feel inside,
I'm asking you to stay


Torn between two lovers

Feelin' like a fool

Lovin' both of you is breakin' all the rules
