If My Heart Had a Say
You call me up, say you want me back
You ask me if I could cut you a little slack
Cause times were hard
Yes times were hard
You’re telling me that things have changed
But in my mind I know it’s all the same
And it’s too hard
This is too hard
I can’t come back to you
Even if I wanted to
Even if my heart wasn’t ripping at the seams
I know what’s best for me
And you’re not the man I thought you’d be
But I know I’ve overcome this pain before
If my heart had a say I might be yours
But it’s time to shut that door
I’m not blaming for the words left unsaid
Or the nights I cried alone in my bed
You had to go
Oh, you had to go
But over time I have made my choice
Yes, over time I have found my voice
That says move on
Oh I have to move on
‘Cause I can’t come back to you
Even if I wanted to
Even if my heart wasn’t ripping at the seams
‘Cause I know what’s best for me
And you’re not the man I thought you’d be
But I know I’ve overcome this pain before
If my heart had a say I might be yours
But it’s time to shut that door
Maybe there’s a window in the future that’s left open
Maybe there’s a time when you won’t leave my heart so broken
But that day’s not today’s not today’s not today’s not today
So for today, for today, I must say I must say I must say
[Instrumental]
No I can’t come back to you
Even if I wanted to
Even if my heart wasn’t ripping at the seams
‘Cause I know what’s best for me
And you’re not the man I thought you’d be
But I know I’ve overcome this pain before
If my heart had a say I might be yours
But it’s time to shut that door
If my heart had a say I might be yours
But it’s time to shut that door
