Lyrics

I glance back a the time I spent with you, oh
I know you feel the same way too
A kiss to wipe away the tears
Can't keep on pushing back the years
We gave up this thing long ago
Just like the stream forever flows
This ain't devotion and it's not defeat
I'm trapped in a kitchen can't stand the heat
Like tears falling from a wounded sky
Let's leave it here it's time to say goodbye
Say goodbye......
CHORUS
You're no the man who used to make me smile, oh no
I guess I should be moving on
You're not the man who used to make me smile, oh no
I guess I should be feeling strong
Would it make you happy if I said I cared for you? oh
Spread my warmth around you in the cold night air
Walk with me up to the edge
Looking over at a life ahead
I may seem a fool to you, in everything I say or do
But I know this is our fate
I think we passed our sell-by date
The encore's through, the show's at an end
Consign me to history but stay my friend
Stay my friend.....
CHORUS
How can I tell you something?
Now can you understand?
How can I be that someone that you'll never comprehend?
CHORUS
