Lyrics
I believe that nothing lasts forever
Promises won't help us stay together
Life for us was never hearts and flowers, my friend
It's sad to think we couldn't solve our problems
Maybe it's because we tried so seldom
So much will change today
That I can only hope and pray
As I watch you leave the room that I'll see you very soon
And it's all that I could do to keep from running after you
And though I wanted to
I let you walk away
It's just a simple case of heartbreak
My hands begin to tremble and my knees shake
But in my heart I pray
I've shown you a brighter day
As you turn to leave the room I hope I'll see you very soon
And it's all that I could do to keep from running after you
And though I wanted to
I let you walk away
As you turn to leave the room I hope I'll see you very soon
And it's all that I could do to keep from running after you
And though I wanted to, although I wanted to
I let you walk away
I let you walk away
I let you walk away
I let you walk away
I let you walk away
I let you walk away
