When you try to say goodbye

When you try to say goodbye to a love that now has died
And you know that all the words you say will be the reason why they cried
You can try then to pretend that every story has to end
But you know down deep inside the love that was has died

Now it seems so long ago, and it hurts when you recall
How the world was ours to play in then but no one told us we could fall
We were young and oh so blind every day was ours to shine
But you know down deep inside the love that was has died

Every day I have to wonder
Where did all those summers go?
When every day seemed so much longer
Now every day just seems so slow

And though you try to carry on you remember how things were
And though the memories aren’t gone it’s a pain you just can’t cure
And every time you see that face you recall a time and place
But you know down deep inside the love that was has died
Yes you know down deep inside the love that was has died
