Love Of My Life
|
Music: John Popper
|
Lyrics: S. Samaroo and John Popper
|
|
I just couldn't cry
|
No matter how hard I try
|
I knew the love we shared was dead
|
Until she gave me a letter
|
With some words she wrote down
|
And I swear this is what she said
|
She said...
|
|
Love of my life our first night together
|
We sat in the rain and talked forever
|
Love of my life your carefree way
|
Showed me the potential of each and
|
every day
|
|
But love of my life
|
When you told me today
|
That my place was gone
|
In your carefree way
|
I realized...
|
|
She said...
|
|
She said love of my life now I finally see
|
A carefree way wasn't meant for me
|
The pain I feel you just can't understand
|
You'd think it as fire, pull away your hand
|
|
But love of my life
|
When you told me today
|
That my place was gone in your carefree
|
way
|
I realized...
|
|
You know she realized she must learn for
|
once on her own not to let her days burn
|
Because she's alone
|
She needed to learn for once on her own
|
not to let her days burn
|
Because she's alone
|
She needed to learn for once on her own
|
not to let her days burn
|
Because she's alone
|
She said...
|
|
Love of my life your arms were never shy
|
To hold me tight when I needed to cry
|
Love of my life you made me believe
|
And for that I do love you but I know I
|
must leave
|
|
Because love of my life
|
When you told me today
|
That my place was gone
|
In your carefree way
|
I realized...
|
|
Oh yes she realized, and for once so did I
|
Because it occurred to me the love of my
|
life was she
|
And then and only then I started to cry
|
|
|
