Lyrics

When the picture tells it all
There's no need for trying or pretending
With your suitcase in the hall
It's not a time for lying, no more crying
I gave a heart, that I may never see
Returned to me
Hold me, like you used to do before
Let me wrap my arms around you, baby
You told me, that you'd never leave no more
So I wrapped my life around you
Before the pleasure turns to shame
It's a time for leaving, not deceiving
And though a promise has been made
I would never hold you, from what you need to do
You keep the years, but the moments I'll keep near
Forever, dear
Hold me, like you used to do before
Let me wrap my arms around you, baby
You told me, that you'd never leave no more
So I wrapped my life around you
I gave a heart, that I may never see
Returned to me
Hold me, like you used to do before
Let me wrap my arms around you, baby
You told me, that you'd never leave no more
So I wrapped my life around you
The passage of years, my song you might hear
In some far off and lonely cafe
And wonder could it ever be that good again
Guess we'll never know, we'll never know
