"Never look back," we said

how was I to know I'd miss you so?

Loneliness up ahead,

emptiness behind

Where do I go?



And you didn't hear

all my joy through my tears

all my hopes through my fears

did you know, still I miss you somehow?



(CHORUS)

>From the bottom of my broken heart

there's just a thing or two I'd like you to know

you were my first love,

you were my true love

from the first kisses to the very last rose

from the bottom of my broken heart

even through time may find me somebody new

you were my real love

I never knew love

'til there was you

from the bottom of my broken heart



"Baby," I said,

"please stay.

Give our love a chance for one more day"

we could have worked things out

taking time is what love's all about



But you put a dart

through my dreams

through my heart

and I'm back where I started again

never thought it would end



(CHORUS)



You promised yourself

but to somebody else

and you made it so perfectly clear

still I wish you were here



(CHORUS)



"Never look back," we said

how was I to know I'd miss you so
