We were together for a little while.
Holding you so tight I was so proud.

I could pick you from the crowd.
And I said to the Lord please, help me out.
I'm wishin' upon these fallin' stars.
And spending most of my time in these parts
Thinking of you and wishin' you were here
Sailin' down and wastin' all my tears

Sittin' and knowin' someday we'll be through
Facing the fact that I know I'm losing you
I don't want to face the fact
But I guess I'll have to take that chance
Of losing you

Bridge

And now I know that I was wrong.
And I'm tryin' to make it here on my own.
But now it does seem all alone
It's easy to see that you're just all grown
Thinking of you and wishin' you were here.
Sailin' down and wastin' all my tears

Sittin' and knowing someday we'll be through
Facing the fact that I know I'm losing you
I don't want to face the fact
But I guess I'll have to take that chance
Of losing you

I don't want to face the fact, oh
But I guess I'll have to take that chance
Of losing you
Of losing you
