When I walked away, I wasn't thinking calmly
I didn't think this finally would be set in stone
And now I rue the day I didn't heed your warning
It seemed a likely story
Although I gave you up, I never let you go
I didn't see it then, but now I really know
I made a big mistake, I never let it show
Although I gave you up, I never let you...
L-l-l-lonely days, l-l-l-lonely nights
I know no other way, I know it isn't right
The dreams that never came, lost somewhere in starlight
L-l-l-lonely days, l-l-l-lonely nights
You said you're moving on; that's when I fell to pieces
I didn't think you'd mean it when you said it's done
I know I was the one who tore our love to pieces
I always thought you'd need me; guess that I was wrong
Although I gave you up, I never let you go
I didn't see it then, but now I really know
I made a big mistake, I never let it show
Although I gave you up, I never let you...
L-l-l-lonely days, l-l-l-lonely nights
I know no other way, I know it isn't right
The dreams that never came, lost somewhere in starlight
L-l-l-lonely days, l-l-l-lonely nights
I'd always thought I could turn back
That's just my way
And now I rue the day
L-l-l-lonely days, l-l-l-lonely nights
I know no other way, I know it isn't right
The dreams that never came, lost somewhere in starlight
L-l-l-lonely days, l-l-l-lonely nights
L-l-l-lonely days, l-l-l-lonely nights
I know no other way, I know it isn't right
The dreams that never came, lost somewhere in starlight
L-l-l-lonely days, l-l-l-lonely nights
