lyrics

It didn't have to be so, you didn't have to say so
but now you're gone forever
Like cruising on a sunny lake, shouldn't be a heartache
but now you're gone forever

You packed the truth away and sold a bunch of lies
You thought I'd run away, but you never saw me cry

We never had the long dance, was always just a romance
But can't we make it, Baby
How can you let our love go? It's burning in our hearts I know
But can't we make it, Baby

It seems like yesterday when I first saw you smile
But people never change, even walking down that aisle

Now you've gone away, and I feel as though that I 'd have to say
You'll never know my love, but I don't have to cry
I still wonder why, when it seemed so right in the morning light
Now you've gone away, and I don't have to cry

You packed the truth away and sold a bunch of lies
You thought I'd run away, but you never saw me cry

Now you've gone away, and I feel as though that I 'd have to say
You'll never know my love, but I don't have to cry
I still wonder why, when it seemed so right in the morning light
Now you've gone away, but I don't have to cry

You packed the truth away and sold a bunch of lies
You thought I'd run away, but you never saw me cry

It didn't have to be so, you didn't have to say so
but now you're gone forever
