A long, long time ago you told menJust how long you thought you'd be minenSo here's a song for you from someone nAt the end of timenn(Guitar)nnI've tried to understand your thinkingnBut I just can't get shallow enoughnCould you explain to me your reasonsnTo choose lust over love? nnI guess it got a whole lot clearernThe day you left and set me freenThe day I finally stopped believingnYou weren't leaving mennI will admit that there have been nightsnWhen the streetlights burn the skynAnd I remember how you loved menLike an honest guynWho just happened to liennI find I'm turning to the grapevinenIt tells me you've got someone elsenThey say that both of you are happy nownBut time will tellnI guess I wish you wellnnBut I know it got a whole lot clearernThe day you left and set me freenWell does she know that you're a leaver?nAnd that you'll leave hernLike you left menn(Repeat)
