Verse I:
You were perfect for me
Every way you could be.
Your love was life changing;
Deeper and deeper than anything.


Verse II:
But now there’s a flaw,
I cannot stay anymore!
Memories I could not bear
Hurts so much as I feel my heart tear.


Pre-chorus I:
Try to talk things through
But can’t work it out with you.
Maybe I’m the one to blame
I wish I could stop…stop your pain.


Love cuts both ways!
Love cuts both ways!
Can’t live together, can’t live apart
But I know that we’re in each other’s hearts.
We can’t be friends and we can’t be lovers
But I know we won’t forget each other.
Love cuts both ways!
Love cuts both ways!


[Verse III:
Left you I want to die,
Though it kills me inside.
Took the love you needed
Away from what I wanted.


Verse IV:
The way I feel for you
I couldn’t heal if I want to.
Missing you way far much,
The memories just aren’t enough.


Pre-chorus II:
I go through the motions
Stuck in painful emotions.
I think of you everyday
Wondering if you’re okay.


Love cuts both ways!
Love cuts both ways!
Can’t live together, can’t live apart
But I know that we’re in each other’s hearts.
We can’t be friends and we can’t be lovers
But I know we won’t forget each other.
Love cuts both ways!
Love cuts both ways!
[
Chorus II:
Can’t live together, can’t live apart
But I know that we’re in each other’s hearts.
We can’t be friends and we can’t be lovers
But I know we won’t forget each other.
Love cuts both ways!
Love cuts both ways!

Tony this works well apart from V111 , where you break the rhyming structure . it could work as
took the love you're needing
then just left you bleeding

or something along that lines . as the other two lines are  die and kills
just my 2 cents

Hi John,

I think we are just two old guys who likes to write for ourselves. You have a lot of talent that you haven't discovered yet aboutt yourself. It took me quite a long time before I got any good at writiing lyrics. I think you're a great guy and someone that I am proud to call my friend.

The composer that I'm working with inisists that the lines that you don't like stay where they are -so that case is closed. I want to thank you for your opinions because I value them very much. Keep writing and sooner or later you'll see a change in your lyrics. Your friend, Tony
