[Verse 1]
When I walked away
I wasn't thinking calmly
I didn't think this folly
Would be set in stone
And now I rue the day
I didn't heed your warning
It seemed a likely story
Oh...

[Pre-Chorus]
Although I gave you up, I never let you go
I didn't see it then, but now I really know
I made a big mistake, I never let it show
Although I gave you up, I never let you...

[Chorus]
Lo-lo-lo-lonely days, lo-lo-lo-lonely nights
I know no other way, I know it isn't right
A change that never came, lost somewhere inside
Lo-lo-lo-lonely days, lo-lo-lo-lonely nights

[Verse 2]
You said you're moving on
That's when I fell to pieces
I didn't think you'd mean it
When you said it's done
I know I was the one
Who tore our love to pieces
I always thought you'd need me
Guess that I was wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
Although I gave you up, I never let you go
I didn't see it then, but now I really know
I made a big mistake, I never let it show
Although I gave you up, I never let you...

[Chorus]
Lo-lo-lo-lonely days, lo-lo-lo-lonely nights
I know no other way, I know it isn't right
A change that never came, lost somewhere inside
Lo-lo-lo-lonely days, lo-lo-lo-lonely nights

[Bridge]
I always thought I could turn back
That's just my way
And now I rue the day (I rue the day)

[Chorus]
Lo-lo-lo-lonely days, lo-lo-lo-lonely nights
I know no other way, I know it isn't right
A change that never came, lost somewhere inside
Lo-lo-lo-lonely days, lo-lo-lo-lonely nights
Lo-lo-lo-lonely days, lo-lo-lo-lonely nights
I know no other way, I know it isn't right
A change that never came, lost somewhere inside
Lo-lo-lo-lonely days, lo-lo-lo-lonely nights
