I know the damage that he's done

I know the damage that he'll do

You know when you knock on my door

I'll always open it to you



There is a time, there is a place

But it's not here and now's not safe

This is a fight that's yours and his

Leave my heart out of this



Leave my heart out of this

You're too much to resist

I don't have the strength to pull away

No is getting hard for me to say

I'd love to be the way your heartache ends

But 'til it does we can't be more than friends

I'm only trying to do what's best

It's gonna hurt you more unless

You leave my heart out of this.



Right now confused is how you feel

Afraid to face this on your own

I know the way you hurt to heal

And I know the empty of alone



So take my shoulder, take my hand

Take what you need, I'll understand

Just don't take more than I can give

Leave my heart out of this



Leave my heart out of this

You're too much to resist

I don't have the strength to pull away

No is getting hard for me to say

I'd love to be the way your heartache ends

But 'til it does we can't be more than friends

I'm only trying to do what's best

It's gonna hurt you more unless

You leave my heart out of this
