I'm so afraid to draw you close Hold me Before my hands fall away I'll suffocate If I can't breathe you in And hold you there Forever I left a message at the hotel They said you checked out They said you ain't coming back I tried to call you But you turned off your cell And it said at the tone Just leave me alone And I fall apart at the seams It seems that I always, always fall apart But as strong as I am Why can't I break your heart? I remember how it used to be Making love to you all night long I used to take you in my arms And hold you there until all my strength was gone I used to be a man of steel I used to be a man of steel I built this prison that I thought was a home And we both lived here Guess you were living alone I'd tear it down if you would only have asked And I would build you a bridge So you could come back And I fall apart at the seams It seems that I always, always fall apart But as strong as I am Why can't I break your heart? I remember how it used to be Making love to you all night long I used to take you in my arms And hold you there until all your fears were gone I used to be a man of steel I used to be a man of steel I used to be a man of steel I used to be a man of steel Hey, now tell me why can't you just break my heart? I used to be an man of steel And I used to take you in my arms I loved you from the start Now you can't tear my world apart I used to be a man of steel Now every bit of faith is gone You used to be so strong Now you can't even break my heart I used to be a man of steel I used to take you in my arms What's it going to take for us to break down? And finally fall Apart at the seams It seems that I always fall apart As strong as you are... As strong as I am... Why can't you break my heart?
