Girl, as we take a long last look at this love

Before you go, I've got to know

I've got to know, was it ever true

I've got to hear it from you



Girl, I can take one more hurt in this heart

Before you go, I've got to know

I've got to know, was it ever true

I've got to hear it from you



Not like before

We were lost in a whirling dance

Never slowing down

Long enough to give truth a chance

To come out

So that the light could shine in



And open your eyes

If it's not real, there's no reason to frown

Open your eyes

Let's not let what never was bring us down



I've got to know, was it ever true

I've got to hear it from you



Not like before

We were lost in a whirling dance

Never slowing down

Long enough to give truth a chance

To come out

So that the light could shine in



And open your eyes

If it's not real, there's no reason to frown

Open your eyes

Let's not let what never was bring us down
