On a cool gray morning

I watched with my own eyes

As he headed out the driveway

And finally out of my life

Oh, I knew he'd soon be

Miles from my mind

So why should tears start falling

After all this time



How can a memory last this long

Will he ever go away

Even the stars burn out and fall

Will he ever go away

How can someone who left so long ago

Still be here with me today

Will he ever go away



Shouldn't I start living my life for myself

Shouldn't it be easy to fall in love with someone else

Oh why should it be his touch

I feel in the dark

And will his voice always

Echo through my heart



[Repeat Chorus
