I know i'll be lonesome
that brings about a little fear
i know i'll be sad and i'll be blue
i have given the best of me
when i forgot to say to you
what you forgot to say to me
so long, so wrong

i have tried and cared, baby, it was never enough
in your mind i never had a clue
so i'll repave the same old road i'm on
where i forgot to say to you
what you forgot to say to me
so long, so wrong

did we take forever in vain
into the past
did we think forever was really gonna last

you have tired me with your wanting ways
you can't buy yourself to be complete
i have given up caring anymore
once you were big in a world that's small
and now you're all alone

have we taken forever in vain
into the past
did we think forever was really gonna last
