|
It Took Us All Night Long To Say Goodbye
|
(Bob McDill/Wayland Holyfield)
|
|
It only took a minute for us to finally end it
|
I guess we'd seen it comin' for some time
|
And it only took one hour to sit and talk it over
|
But it took us all night long to say goodbye
|
|
Now the flame is gone I know
|
And the ashes have grown cold
|
And the love we had we'll never have again
|
But there's one ember left that must have never died
|
'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye
|
|
Too many tears have fallen, too many dreams were broken
|
And holdin' on would be a waste of time
|
But sometimes I know I'll wonder if it was really over
|
'Cause it took us all night to say goodbye
|
|
Now the flame is gone I know
|
And the ashes have grown cold
|
And the love we had we'll never have again
|
But there's one ember left that must have never died
|
'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye
|
|
There's one ember left that must have never died
|
'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye
|
