You say we’ve got as far as we can go
And something maybe that I ought to know
Your heart is set upon some other places
You need to travel and see distant faces
You wear a smile that’s been out in the rain
But still show the one that made me remain
I always knew that there would be a price
But now you want a second sacrifice
Well that’s fine for you – that’s fine for you
You didn’t tell me you were leaving
You gave me something precious to believe in
Can I tell you what is so absurd?
I really took you for your every word
You shrug and say it happens all the time
And thought that maybe I had seen the signs
Will you spare me every empty phrase?
How the heart somehow heals with the passing days
But now you have some things to pack
And coolly drop you won’t be coming back
Well that’s fine for you – that’s fine for you
You didn’t tell me you were leaving
You gave me something precious to believe in
You say we’ve got as far as we can go
And something maybe that I ought to know
Your heart is set upon some other places
You need to travel and see distant faces…
