How could you forget the taste of love
|
When I can still remember?
|
All the words we said are wasted
|
Now, it's just a dying ember
|
Every thought we shared together
|
Disappeared without a warning
|
As the book is closed forever,
|
So the truth is slowly dawning
|
There goes my love
|
There goes my life
|
|
In your arms, such sweet seclusion
|
Only fate knew it was leading
|
To a heart full of confusion
|
Was it just a false illusion?
|
Maybe even you believed it
|
Victim of my own creation
|
There you were and I conceived it
|
So much for imagination
|
There goes my love
|
There goes my life
|
|
Echoes of your voice surround me
|
Sympathetic smile's still taunting
|
Memories of you around me
|
Shadows of the parsed light haunting
|
Guilty of complete devotion
|
Sentenced to a life of longing
|
Prisoner of my own emotion
|
Wanting you but not belonging
|
There goes my love
|
There goes my life
|
|

There Goes My Love, There Goes My Life
