Try

You say you wanna leave me
That you've felt it for awhile, but
How could i have been the last to know?
You say things have changed
That you need to get away, and
You don't love me anymore.

Your little ballerina is gonna cry herself to sleep
Wondering, where did daddy go?
And what about maria?
How her heart will break in two
When she comes to ask me about you.

But love, isn't always what it seems.
All that i can tell you is to hold onto your dreams.
When i think about us and what we've shared i want to cry.
Before you leave me baby, before you say goodbye.
Please think about the future-
And maybe we can try.

The years have come and gone
Since that day you came to me, and
Though you and i have seen this through.
We're living like strangers
There's no passion in your eyes, and
I don't know what else i can do.

Your little ballerina is still gonna cry herself to sleep
Wondering, why did daddy have to go?
And what about maria?
How her heart will break in two
When she learns the truth about me and you.

But love, isn't always what it seems.
All that i can tell you is to hold onto your dreams.
When i think about us and what we've shared i want to cry.
Before you leave me baby, before you say goodbye.
I still have so much love to give-
Tell me we can try.

I have lived my life for you
For the last twenty years.
And right now i'd do anything
Just to quiet these tears.
But the pain is getting stronger,
And i can't go on like this.
Tell me what you need,
'cause i'm all out of tries.
