Lyrics

​​

[Verse 1]

You and I go back a long, long way

So many dreams have slipped away

Since I came into your life

Oh, looking back, my memories of you

Lost in a world that we once knew

Remember those brighter days

 

[Pre-chorus]

Though I never told you, I always wanted to

I wanted to show you what was on my mind

 

Now you're gone, and my memories remain

Now you're gone, and I love you just the same

But I always thought that we would have more time

 

[Chorus]

Why are you leaving me now?

Just when I finally love you

Why are you leaving me now?

Just when I finally want you

I wanted to hold you, one more time

 

[Bridge]

The only thing that I can do

Is hope that you believe me

And I will do the things I know

That you would like to see me do

 

[Pre-chorus]

Now you're gone, and my memories remain

But now you're gone, and I love you just the same

But I always thought that we would have more time

 

[Chorus]

Why are you leaving me now?

Just when I finally love you

Why are you leaving me now?

Just when I finally want you

I never wanted it this way

I want you to come back, I want you to come back

Why are you leaving me now?

Just when I finally love you

I wanted to hold you

Just when I finally want you

Why are you leaving me now?
