If you ever pass by where I used to live
and should you bump in to the man I was with
back when I didn't know what to believe
please will you tell him from me

that I loved him with every beat of my heart
I trembled with long and when we were apart
oh I'd ache to pull him in close
and I don't think he knows

The last thing I heard he was losing his job
I guess they'd found out that he rarely turned up
he hated it there only stayed for me
please, will you make him believe

that I always thought you should follow your dreams
however hard and uncertain it seems
I had loved him whatever he chose
and I don't think he knows

I lives grew apart, it's been just over a year
the reasons I can't really tell you about here
love wasn't nearly enough in the end
please, will you tell him again

that I hurt myself more than I've ever hurt him
I wasn't as distant and cold as I seemed
I was lost all the way into my bones
I don't think he knows

When the dust had settled he moved on his well
he found a new girl that he loved, I could tell
and my mind started wandering jealously
please, will you ask him from me

if really he thought that I was the one
or were we just sharing some time on the run
did he love me with peace and with hope
I don't really know
