Song Lyrics

The time had come at last.
We said a last goodbye.
And tho' we both were sad
Neither one could cry.
Once in love, love now gone
We had to start anew.
And while we found it hard to face,
It's what we all go through.
Sometimes you try
To understand
How love can come
Then go again.
Just when you think
Your heart won't mend,
It's love that finds you
In the end.

Many years have passed
Since we went separate ways.
I saw her on the street.
We weren't sure what to say.
But as we talked
Holding our own kids,
She said what we both knew:
Fate had someone in the cards
But it just wasn't you.

Sometimes you try
To understand
How love can come
Then go again.
Just when you think
Your heart won't mend,
It's love that finds you
In the end.

Young love's always so intense
Tho' not always making sense.
And while it's hard to see,
It's not always meant to be.

We were young, we thought we knew
What love's supposed to feel.
But now that love has found us both,
We know that it's for real.

Sometimes you try
To understand
How love can come
Then go again.

Just when you think
Your heart won't mend,
It's love that finds you
In the end. (Repeat slowly)
