there was a time when
broken hearts and broken dreams were over
there was a place where
all you could do was
wish on a four leaf clover

but now is a new time
there is a new place
where dreams just can't come true
it started the day when i left you (oh)

chorus:
i could never love again the way i loved you (oh)
i could never cry again like i did when i left you
and when we said goodbye
oh the look in your eyes
just left me beside myself without your heart
i could never love again now that we're apart

when i was sorry
it was too late to turn around
and tell you so
there was no reason
(there was no reason)
just a foolish beat of my heart

chorus:
i could never love again the way i loved you (oh)
i could never cry again like i did when i left you
and when we said goodbye
oh the look in your eyes
just left me beside myself without your heart
i could never love again now that we're apart

can't you see i'm not fooling nobody
don't you see, the tears are falling down my face
since you went away
break my heart, you slipped away
didn't know i was wrong
never meant to hurt you now you're gone

chorus:

i could never love again the way i loved you (oh)
i could never cry again like i did when i left you
and when we said goodbye
oh the look in your eyes
just left me beside myself without your heart
i could never love again now that we're apart
(now that we're apart) (oh)
i could never love again now that we're apart
