Love will abide
Take things in stride
Sounds like good advice
But there's no one at my side
And time washes clean love's wounds unseen
That's what someone told me
But I don't know what it means
Refrain
Cause I've done everything
I know to try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long, long time
Caught in my fears, blinking back the tears
I can't say you hurt me when you never let me near
And I never drew one response from you
All the while you fell over girls you never knew
Refrain
Cause I've done everything
I know to try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long, long time
Wait for the day you go away
knowing that you warned me of the price I'd have to pay
And life's full of loss, who knows the cost
Living in the memory of the love that never was
'Cause I've done everything I know
To try and change your mind
And I think I'm gonna miss you for a long, long time
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long, long time
Wait for the day you go away
knowing that you warned me of the price I'd have to pay
And life's full of loss, who knows the cost
Living in the memory of the love that never was
'Cause I've done everything I know
To try and make you mine,
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long, long time
