you think you can remember yeah we'll get a clue
you were never together you know she only had you
but now you smell her golden hair
and see your eyes so blue
and all the glory days they seem so far and few
there was a time she told you that she couldn't stay
but there were so many times
she begged you not to go away
do you remember when
nothing in your world could ever change
but then the sky went dark
and everything was rearranged
there was a time she begged him not to go away
there was one last time
she told him that he couldn't stay
now sometimes you wonder if you did what was right
but you could never imagine being anywhere else tonight
still you do and say things
you told yourself you never would
ah but ain't it just so hard to be so good
and there are times you wonder why she stayed
there was never a time you wished that you'd gone away
