I'll never be far from home

talkin' on the telephone

You told me it's over, you made up your mind,

I'm part of the life that you're leaving behind



I'm left holding the torch

and the heat from the flame,

only ease me a pain



Don't you know how much it hurts,

you took all I had and you threw it away



I'm left holding the flame, yes I am

holding the flame once again

I'm left holding the flame, yes I am

holding the flame once again



Nomatter what you say, it hurts

You didn't had to make it worse

It wouldn't be better as you told me yourself,

instead that you left to somebody else



Maybe I could understand

you'd been staying with another man

Day isn't long and nights can be lonely

I wasn't there and you needed to hold me



I'm left holding the torch

and the heat from the flame,

only ease me a pain



Don't you know how much it hurts,

you took all I had and you threw it away



I'm left holding the flame, yes I am

holding the flame once again

I'm left holding the flame, yes I am

holding the flame once again



I'll never be far from home

talkin' on the telephone

You told me it's over, you made up your mind.

I'm part of the life that you're leaving behind.



I'm left holding the torch

and the heat from the flame,

only ease me a pain



Don't you know how much it hurts,

you took all I had and you threw it away



I'm left holding the flame, yes I am

holding the flame once again

I'm left holding the flame, yes I am

holding the flame once again

I'm left holding the flame, yes I am

holding the flame once again

I'm left holding the flame, yes I am

holding the flame once again

I'm left holding the flame, yes I am
