Song Lyrics

You said, "Someday I'm gonna break your heart"
The first time that we met
Were you warnin' me, just seein' how close I'd get
We lay down in a lover's sigh
As a million years of time rolled by
How can I be hopin' that it's not over yet

I can't hold on to the night
Things change, ain't nothin' ever stays the same
You're gone as far as I can see
If you feel like lettin' go
Honey, I don't wanna be the last to know
I wanna hold on tight to the sweet memory of you lovin' me

Let the good times find their own way home
I'd kiss you goodbye but you're already gone
Cryin' now, just a tryin' now to wash me away
When you look back on the times we've had
Let the good ones wash away the bad
Don't look back on these bitter words we spoke today

I can't hold on to the night
Things change, ain't nothin' ever stays the same
You're gone as far as I can see
If you feel like lettin' go
Honey, I don't wanna be the last to know
I wanna hold on tight to the sweet memory of you lovin' me

You said, "Someday I'm gonna break your heart"
The first time that we met
Were you warnin' me, just seein' how close I'd get
We lay down in a lover's sigh
As a million years of time rolled by
How can I be hopin' that it's not over yet

I can't hold on to the night
Things change, ain't nothing ever stays the same
You're gone as far as I can see
If you feel like lettin' go
Honey, I don't wanna be the last to know
I wanna hold on tight to the sweet memory of you lovin' me
You lovin' me
