When you told me that you loved me
I had no reason to doubt it
so I went about my life in such a selfish way
and never really thought about it.
Oh do I have to let go?
Oh I had my chance and I`ve blown it,
cos I loved you so much all these years
and somewhere in myself, between my pride and fear
just couldn`t find a way to show it.
I know it doesn`t give you joy to give me such pain
but you`re in love with him now, my old friend -
I know all about that, there`s no need to explain
but why do I have to say goodbye
when I love you still, and can only feel that I`m dying.
Still every word I say just seem to come out wrong
and none of them deny the face that you are gone
and that I`m left here, crying.
What`s the good of songs anyway
they`re just exercises in solitude.
I should have been ready for today -
I always prayed you wouldn`t go,
but I always knew you would.
I suppose you say to him now
`I know that some day you`ll leave me`
just like you did to me, and I deny it,
but you wouldn`t believe me.
Ooh do I have to let go of you
ooh I don`t think that I can do it -
you`re always going to be the guardian of my soul,
and I`ll always have a part of you to call my own,
how stupid that I never proved it.
Oh I know I`ll never let go
oh because I don`t want to be just your friend.
We spent seven years together in our own way,
I can`t believe the story ends like this today...
