You don't have to say a word |
|
I know why you're standing here |
|
In the porch light with those tears |
|
For a while you've tried to find the words |
|
That could break my heart |
|
And still leave us as good friends |
|
Let me help you out |
|
Were you just seventeen and young |
|
Seventeen and dumb |
|
Caught up by the sight |
|
Of that Montana sky that night |
|
You gave me your heart |
|
On the first falling star |
|
It was bright and fell fast |
|
And love can burn out like that |
|
Just take me back to that night |
|
The campfire flickered in your eyes |
|
Oh I know you felt it too |
|
But what I can't figure out |
|
Is what exactlys different now |
|
Where did I lose you |
|
Please tell me now |
|
Was I just seventeen and young |
|
Seventeen and dumb |
|
Caught up by the sight |
|
Of that Montana sky that night |
|
I gave you my heart |
|
On the first falling star |
|
It was bright and fell fast |
|
And love can burn out like that |
|
So go ahead and dry your eyes |
|
Let's not make this a bad goodbye |
|
We both know what happened here |
|
We were seventeen and young |
|
Seventeen and dumb |
|
Caught up by the sight |
|
Of that Montana sky that night |
|
You gave me your heart |
|
On the first falling star |
|
It was bright and fell fast |
|
And love can burn out like that |
