[Verse 1]
Since the day I met you, I've been living in a dream
Knowing all the while our love was wrong
And all the times you mentioned him were few and far between
I knew we could never love for long

[Verse 2]
I shouldn't give a second thought of how it might have been
I shouldn't even miss you when you're gone
I knew the day would come when you'd go running back to him
I knew we could never love for long

[Bridge]
I knew at times you missed him 'cause I hеard you when you cried
I guess that hе was always on your mind
But I thought that I could take it when you finally said goodbye
Oh, how could I have ever been so blind?

[Verse 3]
I could never blame you 'cause I knew it from the start
You never really tried to lead me on
So tell me why this empty feeling's tearing me apart
When I knew we could never love for long
So tell me why this empty feeling's tearing me apart
When I knew we could never love for long
