Just when we were billed to glide high
I did bid you goodbye
…sighing to doubt a fly high
Oh why did I stand by…just to stare?
Why did I stare?
…as you slipped by
…as you wondered why
In the full glare of my stare
Your eyes saw it in my eyes
Just when my eyes saw it in your eyes
Why didn’t I see it like it was?
Why didn’t I say it like it was?
Time it was
That heartlessly crowded me out
Fate it was
That callously wrestled you out of my arms
Strange it was
That we loved without you and me
We drew close at age tender
We clung closer than ever for longer
Why did we drift asunder
As we grew wiser
Now I am wishing we didn’t grow older
Then we wouldn’t be so far apart
…from each other
I acted a heartbreaking ghost
When you needed me most
How did I miss a heartbeat
…that was meant for me?
How did I miss a heart
…that was waiting for my heartbeat?
What is my heart without your heartbeat?
ii
I realize I’ve been unfair to you
So please let me make amends
After all we were more than friends
Don’t say you forgot the love we knew
I know true love never ends
If I made you blue
I admit it’s true
I will sing you some new blues
I will make it up to you
Forgive me now
And forget me not
If I caused you pain
I know I am to blame
If I told you a lie
I must have been insane
I know I made you cry
When I said goodbye
This time I won’t say goodbye
Now I will say goodnight
Can I find another you?
I know you can’t happen twice
Why should I need another you?
I am so lost in your love
…forever
After loving you first
All the rest are second best
Never knew how much you meant to me
Till I walked away
It’s my fault, all my fault
That we are apart
I’d give anything I could to be back with you
What more can I say
From the top of my head
To the bottom of my heart
I love you
I love you…still
I will love you till…
