  • Believe me, I'm speechless
    I wish that I could say those words
    You whispered so sweetly
    And maybe I'll regret this but I've gotta be honest
    'Cause we made a promise, I won't break it now
    I wish I could hold you
    But how could I be so unfair to lead us to nowhere?
    We've both been down that road before
    And if it should end us please know that I'm helpless
    I've made up my mind

    It's not that I don't care the way that you do
    It's just my heart's not ready yet
    For somebody new
    It's not that I don't feel the feelings you do
    It's just my heart's not ready yet
    For somebody new

    If only this started when love was something new to me
    I'd never have questioned
    Rejecting what we could have been
    But when you've been broken
    Some wounds remain open
    That no one can heal

    It's not that I don't care the way that you do
    It's just my heart's not ready yet
    For somebody new
    It's not that I don't feel the feelings you do
    It's just my heart's not ready yet
    For somebody new

    It's not that I don't feel, the feelings you do
    It's just my heart's not ready yet
    For somebody new (yeah)
    It's not that I don't care the way that you do
    The way that you do, babe
    'Cause when my heart's not ready yet
    For something so soon, yeah
    It's just my heart's not ready yet
    For somebody new (no) Writer/s: Adam Slack, Gethin Davies, Jed Elliott, Luke Spiller
