all the days i looked into your smiling face
and all the nights i stumbled through my hidden disgrace
and how i wished we met under different circumstance
as i try to disguise my own affectionate glance

in your times away please know i’ll always care
and that forever on you’ll always be right here
but now the time has come for me to seal my own tomb
as i wave goodbye and walk out of your room

and i know it ain’t right to dream of you tonight with another girl in my bed
as i toss and i turn and the thoughts pour through my head
so your life you’ll lead while i just make mine do
no i will never know what its like to be loved by you

but now your gone and it’s easy to admit all this
from your own welcomed hellos to your warm goodnight kiss
and i’ll try to repair the void that is here since you’ve had to go your own way
no i would’ve never tried to convince, convince you to stay
