Love Wasn't Enough Written by David Wright 16 July 1993 Copyright © 1993, 2026, by David Wright [verse 1] the boxes are packed by the bedroom door i’m missing you now like never before your laughter still echoes, your perfume still lingers the ring’s in my pocket, it’s not on your finger [chorus] we held on tight we thought it was right but love wasn’t enough love just wasn’t enough we gave it our all still watched it fall love wasn’t enough love just wasn’t enough to keep our hearts near [verse 2] you called me to ask, “can i see you once more” in your voice i heard something not heard before love and regret were clear in your tone like neither one of us had a choice of our own [chorus] we held on tight we thought it was right but love wasn’t enough love just wasn’t enough we gave it our all still watched it fall love wasn’t enough love just wasn’t enough to keep our hearts near [verse 3] we stood right there where the driveway ends we knew that forever we’d be more than friends but for these last few moments we’d just let it be exactly the way that it used to be [final chorus ] we held on tight we thought it was right but love wasn’t enough love just wasn’t enough we gave it our all still watched it fall love wasn’t enough love just wasn’t enough we held on tight we knew it was right but love still wasn’t enough love just wasn’t enough we gave it our all still watched it fall but love wasn’t enough no love wasn’t enough to keep our hearts near
