I just grow weaker as the days go by

I cry so much there's no reason to wipe my eyes

Way down deep inside my mind

I still deny that I must say good-bye

To the one I thought would always be mine

Now I believe that what we give comes back to us in time

And I believe that if you search for long enough you'll find

What you always know to be the truth was right before your eyes

And so if...if I have to let you go



[chorus]

Darling just as long as you know

Wherever you go

If there's a road that leads you back my way

I'll be at the end of that road

Just so you know

I...I'm gonna be there



There's just no easy way to prepare

For something like this

Cause you never know just what you'll do

Until the moment exists

See, I tried to tell my heart to just behave

My lips wanna beg you to stay...but it'll be okay

If I can just convince my arms to let you go

Now, I don't know how I'll ever get over this

Cause there's this chance

That you might find somebody else

I'm hoping the odds are all against it

But if you do and it's not what you want in your heart

If it's tearing you apart, you need to come on back here



[chorus]



Just a few years ago

I was told the best way to keep

Something precious...set it free

Cause love will span the distance

And if you ever find yourself

At the lonesome road

You just turn around

I will be right there

I'll be waiting for you

My love is gonna be there



[chorus]
