You said you couldn't leave me
after all that we'd been through
I be lieved you when you said we
should both try something new
I was drowning inside here
with a love that was so true
But you laughed right in my face and
there was nothing I could do
Once I took a walk across
the hill to see what I could see
I saw a light falling from the sky
and land beneath a tree
The light it gave was oh, so bright
that it took away my care
I ran back to the house to tell you
but you were not there
When you've loved someone dearly
it's so hard not to regret
Memories that have faded,
suddenly you can't forget
I know I was not dreaming when
you walked right out the door
Just a feeling that told me my
love was gone for evermore
When you think you've found the key,
the door just slips away
And so you walk the floor all night until
the break of day
Somewhere in your mind you know
that things will be alright
Because everything in life is equal just
like the day and night
You said you couldn't leave me after
all that we'd been through
I believed you when you said that we
should both try something new
