You stepped on the overnight train 
I looked in your eyes 
But just couldn't find the words to ease your pain 
And deep down I knew that I'd never see you again 

I stood there and waved you good-bye

It's always the same 
The skies are all cloudy and the sun won't shine 
When I said goodbye I must have been out of my mind 

'Cause I gave up a lifetime of love 
The moment I let you go 
The moment so long ago, my love 
When you went away 

Now I long for that lifetime of love 
That you could have given me 
Without you it's hard to see, my love 
How I can go on 

Yes, I gave up a lifetime of love 
The moment I let...
