Lyrics
The time is coming soon
When all this pain will be forgotten
And I'll pack my dream away
With fading photographs of you
And I know the day will soon be here
When you won't stop to think about me
And my eyes won't fill with tears
Every time I hear your name
But can I just say
Nobody ever loved you
Like I loved you
CHORUS
You were my almost dream come true
(All I ever wanted)
And I had it all when I had you
And I still love you
The time is coming soon
When all our dreams will be a memory
And your eyes won't fill with tears
When you think what could have been
And I know the time will soon be here
When I won't stop to think we're over
And my eyes will smile again
When I think what we once knew
But can I just say
Nobody ever loved me
Like you loved me
REPEAT CHORUS
And after everything is said and done
I believe it could be so much more
If we just admit what we're feeling
So come on here's one last chance
Say the word before we leave it
I still love you
The smallest love affair can take a lifetime to get over
And I know I'll spend my whole life getting over you
REPEAT CHORUS
The smallest love affair can take a lifetime to get over
And I know I'll spend my whole life getting over you
