Since the day that you went away I've been wondering what went wrong Playing back the tape in my head And hearing the same old song Seems quite strange that the people change How they go from hot to cold Flames grow higher than that And get dimmer when they're old How can I say that I love you? How can I show I care? What would we do if we had time to? Only more time to share Spent too many nights All alone, on my own Wishin' you were there Right beside me at home Since the day that you went away I've been trying to move along Playing back the tape in my head And hearing the same old song Seems quite strange how we rearrange Taking our love from here to there Never would I find anyone With the likes of your compassion How can I say that I love you? How can I show I care? What would we do if we had time to? Only more time to share Spent too many nights All alone, on my own Wishin' you were there Right beside me at home Since the day that you went away I've been wondering what went wrong Playin' back the tape in my head Playin' back the tape in my head Playin' back the tape and hearin' the same song
