Well, you told me that you wished that things had not,
|
Turned out this way.
|
You never thought there'd come a time,
|
When you would go away.
|
But you stayed right here beside me,
|
Even when the love was gone.
|
And just because I'm hurting,
|
That don't mean that you've done something wrong.
|
|
Well, you said that you were sorry,
|
And you'd take all the blame.
|
But we both shared the gamble,
|
So let's both share the pain.
|
Like a breeze that blew across us,
|
Love just moved along.
|
And just because I'm hurting,
|
That don't mean that you've done something wrong.
|
|
We were happy for awhile dear,
|
But that's all over now.
|
I'll pick up the pieces,
|
And I'll get along somehow.
|
But it all came back too clearly,
|
In my bed, alone, tonight, as I was,
|
Lying here just waiting for,
|
Oh, that early morning light.
|
|
Now you've gone so far away, dear,
|
And these words I cannot say.
|
I cursed at you for leaving,
|
Slammed the door and ran away.
|
In your face, I saw the sadness,
|
But I've waited, now, too long,
|
To tell you: "I still love you,
|
"And you've done nothing wrong."
|
|
'Cause we were happy for awhile dear,
|
But that's all over now.
|
I'll pick up the pieces,
|
And I'll get along somehow.
|
But it all came back too clearly,
|
In my bed, alone, tonight, as I was,
|
Lying here just waiting for,
|
Oh, that early morning lit.

You've Done Nothing Wrong
