As you walk right out the door
Please pick my heart up off the floor
Toss it in the corner, please
Right next to all the broken dreams
The dreams we had, the dreams that died
It can sit next to the tears we cried
The tears like not so gentle rain
A few of joy, but mostly pain
The tears we cried most every night
We tried like hell to make it right
Mistakes we made, both you and I
The tears are welling in our eyes
Here we go now once again
You’re asking me “Remember when?”
And I remember all too clear
Just how I longed to have you near
You and me, no going back
A memory cut, a fade to black
We grew so close, we grew apart
We hit the end and then it starts
I want you back, now go away
Where did you go, why won’t you stay?
My heart, it can’t take anymore
Please leave it lying on the floor
ยฉThe Beginning At Last
