Lyrics
I was looking again
At your photograph
Every time I pay the price
Wipe tears from my eyes
How could I let you go
Was a middle child
In a stranger's house
Every time I made a friend
Had to make one again
You're the only truth I know
I just can't say goodbye
You know the reason why
I just can't say goodbye to you
In another life
In another world
Might have gone another way
But this is today
Got to live with the choice I made
But through all this time
And through all the changes
Every day I think on you
Live my whole life through
In the hope for the love I've saved
I just can't say goodbye, etc.
I know that
I can't just
Turn back the clock and
Start over again
But I see
Love in your eyes
And I've just got to try
'Cause this pain never ends
In another time
In another place
I would love you just the same
And it's not too late
But we'll never know
Till you take my hand
I just can't say goodbye, etc.
I've paid for my mistake
In years of heartbreak
I know that
What is at stake is the truth
'Cause I can't say goodbye to you
