Once I left my home to do what's right
Chased my dreams and found a broken heart
I tried to love her
I tried to fix her up
But still she went and broke down
So I gave her up
Sweet November cold mixes with dark
Without the one I love I've found I'm lost
I gave up on the question
I gave up on the one I love
I gave up on the answer
The hardest part
I'm trying to make sense of all this pain
I cut myself adrift to survive
Oh God, my God
You know I'm just wondering like a fool
Trying to come right
Oh God
Tell me something real to take me back
Remain with me if you want to find love
Don't give up on the question
Don't give up on the one you love
Don't give up on the answer
The hardest part
