Song Lyrics

I could hardly believe it when I heard the news today
I had to come and get it straight from you
They said you were leaving
Someone swept your heart away
From the look upon your face I see it's true

So tell me all about it, tell me 'bout the plans you're makin'
Then tell me one thing more before I go

Tell me, how am I supposed to live without you?
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you?
And how am I supposed to carry on?
When all that I've been livin' for is gone

Didn't come here for cryin'
Didn't come here to break down
It's just a dream of mine is comin' to an end
How can I blame you
When I built my world around?
The hope that one day we'd be so much more than friends

And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreamin'
I need you now, it's more than I can take

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you?
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you?
And how am I supposed to carry on?
When all that I've been livin' for is gone

And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreamin'
Now that your dream has come true

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you?
Now that I've been loving you so long
How am I supposed to live without you?
And how am I supposed to carry on?
All that I've been livin' for is gone without you
After I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you?
And how am I supposed to carry on?
