Lyrics

I realized that now our love is past
Tried so hard to make it last
Feelings are far gone
They just seem to fade away
But yet I can hear him say we did try
Tried our best to make it through those times
Let's stop, don't go any further, 'cause I need some time
Darlin' I know you never meant to make me cry
I never understood your reasons why
And darlin' I know you never meant to make me cry
These lonely nights without you
I guess it's goodbye
Ooh, I never thought that I would hear you say
I should go my own way
Tell me, can't you see the changes that you put me through?
I wonder if you really knew
How I tried, tried my best to make it through those times
But you said, "Stop, don't go any further, 'cause I need more time"
Oh, baby
And darlin' I know you never meant to make me cry
I never understood your reasons why
Oh, oh, oh, darlin' I know you never meant to make me cry (me cry)
These lonely nights without you, guess it's goodbye
Goodbye
Oh (darlin' I)
You never meant to make me cry
I never understood your reasons why
And darlin' I, you never meant to make me cry
Tell me why, tell me why, why? Whoa
(Darlin' I) whoo-hoo, yeah
(Never meant to make me cry) you never meant to make me cry
Don't say goodbye
And darlin' I, whoa, whoa, whoa
