And so it goes, please don’t cry
As two lover’s wave, to their love goodbye
Day to day, never the same
Common ground, kept them safe and sound
Until one sad day she found the words to say
"I’ve lost your heart, I fear that you’ve lost mine
And love’s not enough, to mend this break
We need a change, that’s why I can’t stay anymore"
Love lost right from the start
Now they’ve gone and both ripped out their hearts
Tears will fall from their faces
The youngest child she weeps
The eldest loses sleep and it’s a shame
As she’s taking back her name
He starts the day (But what of her)
Two feet on shaking ground (So far away)
And in his heart (She walks alone)
There is not a sound
He’s all alone (She can live)
She’s far away (The kind of life)
And now he knows (For herself)
No one else to blame anymore
Love lost right from the start
Now they’ve gone and both ripped out their hearts
Tears will fall from their faces
The youngest child she weeps
The eldest loses sleep and it’s a shame
As she’s taking back her name
