I stand watching as he walks right past.
What we had was something that just wouldn't last.
I call him on the phone,
Only to hear the dial tone.
Memories that last longer than you and me
Keep me from being set free.
I can't let go of you,
I wouldn't know what to do.
A friendship too great to forget,
Each moment with you, I can never regret.
What went wrong? !
It seems nothing good ever lasts for long.
You kept me alive, only to tear me apart
And leave me with a broken heart.
