|
I dont' know why it should be sohard |
|
Givin' up this circle dance |
|
Worn out steps from long ago |
|
Don't give love a chance |
|
It's a bitter heirloom handed down |
|
These twisted parts we play |
|
I'm not her and you're not him |
|
It just comes out that way |
|
Can't go back to make things right |
|
(though i) wish i'd understood |
|
Time has made things clearer now |
|
We did the best we could |
|
I'll be home soon, that's what you'd say |
|
And a little kid believes |
|
After a while i learned that love |
|
Must be a thing that leaves |
|
I tried so hard just to hold you near |
|
Was as good as i could be |
|
Even when i had you here |
|
You stayed so far from me |
|
Can't go back to make things right |
|
(though i) wish i'd understood |
|
Time has made things clearer now |
|
You did the best you could |
|
Now that this has occurred tome |
|
I just wanted you to know |
|
I've been too faithful all my life |
|
It's time to let you go |
