(David Barnes)



Since the day I met you I've been living in a dream

Knowing all the while our love was wrong

And all the times you mentioned him were you and part between

I knew we could never love for long.



I shouldn't give a second thought of how it might have been

I shouldn't even miss you when you're gone

I knew the day would come and you'd go running back to him

I knew we could never love for long.



I knew at times you missed him cause I heard you when you cried

I guess that he was always on your mind

But I thought that I could take it when you finally said goodbye

Oh, how could I have ever been so blind.



I could never blame you cause I knew it from the start

You never really tried to lead me on

So tell me why this empty feeling's tearing me apart

When I knew we could never love for long.



So tell me why this empty feeling's tearing me apart

When I knew we could never love for long...
