When you came to me, you said love could not erase
The ever present memory of another face
I tried to make you love me, how could I be so blind
To think I'd be the one to change your mind

And if I'm gone before you start
Well you can find me in your heart
Who can say if it's right or wrong
I've waited for you too long
And if I can't hold on, I'm gone

When you came to me, I said love will find a way
For every heart that leaves, another heart will stay
But I guess you couldn't see past the shadows in the night
It seems the time for us just wasn't right

And if I'm gone before you start
Well you can find me in your heart
Who can say if it's right or wrong
I've waited for you too long
And I can't hold on, I'm gone

And if I'm gone before you start
Well you can find me in your heart
Who can say if it's right or wrong
I've waited for you too long
And I can't hold on, I'm gone
Gone, gone, gone
I can't hold on
Gone
