- What Was Lyrics / with translationsWhat was I to do
You never should have called me up
What was I to do
Haven?t we both had enough?
I still think of you
Even though we?re miles apart
What was I to do?
The fire is still there
My heart is too scared to fall again
It?s a little too late because
We?ll never change what was
There you go again
Girl, it?s never going to end
It?s something we can?t have
We must let go
I want so much to say
I love you more today
The hardest thing
I?ve ever had to say goodbye
What was I to do
You should've never called me up
What was I to do
Haven?t we both had enough?
Oh, the fire is still there
My heart is too scared to fall again
It?s a little too late because
We?ll never change what was
It?s a little too late because
We?ll never change what was
You never should have called me up
What was I to do
Haven?t we both had enough?
I still think of you
Even though we?re miles apart
What was I to do?
The fire is still there
My heart is too scared to fall again
It?s a little too late because
We?ll never change what was
There you go again
Girl, it?s never going to end
It?s something we can?t have
We must let go
I love you more today
The hardest thing
I?ve ever had to say goodbye
What was I to do
You should've never called me up
What was I to do
Haven?t we both had enough?
Oh, the fire is still there
My heart is too scared to fall again
It?s a little too late because
We?ll never change what was
It?s a little too late because
We?ll never change what was

Who's cecila ? i got the message about woman all over town make a man out you action. And then i should be alone if you're not who i thought you'd be. The song hot blooded and if you leave. I can't tell you how to live your life. We are not married and not in a real life relationship.if we were married i wouldn't put up with you messing around, i would leave you for good. I want you to be happy. I don't like the song urgent or hot blooded because it's about one night stands. i'm not ready to get married either. if i'm not mistaking the song messages at least you know how i feel about certain things. I don't know how i feel about things because i'm not sure if i'm understanding everything. All the lines are calling my name i don't know from day today for sure where you are on the line. There are songs being said about our love; the way you are by billy joel and what was by steve perry. I want things to work out for me and my father figure and try . I need to be alone and work out my own life on my own with out you. Part of me doesn't want you to leave because sometimes i need to talk to you.
