Lyrics
You say we're through,
Now comes the hard part.
When I have to tell my heart you're leaving me,
I know my heart will tell my eyes to start crying,
And my hands, well, they will tremble at the news.
My mind will say, I don't believe it,
But my ears will know they've heard it and it's true,
Then our world will slowly start to crumble,
As the news of your leaving filters through.
If my heart could say it's sorry,
And if the sad sound of goodbye could fade away.
Then these tears that fill my eyes would be so happy,
If my mind could tell my heart you're going to stay.
Then these trembling hands would hold you,
And caress you in that old familiar way,
And these lips that long to say the words I love you.
Would let my heart know that you're going to stay.
My lips could tell my heart you're going to stay.
