So

We saw each other from afar
And thought we'd take a chance
Both burned before but still
We longed for passionate romance
Our hearts as one, we melted into
Years of long embrace
But now I see the pain is melting
Joy right off your face

So, if you've ever cared for me
If our love was true
Then darling, open up your heart
And hear my words to you
If you search inside yourself
There's one thing left to know -
Our joy's been gone for far too long
You must now let me go

Our days were filled with poetry
Our nights were filled with song
The kinds that steal away your breath
And blur your right from wrong
But as the fire dwindled
And the night passed into day
Our song became a hollow note
And the ember died away

So, if you've ever cared for me
If our love was true
Then darling, open up your heart
And hear my words to you
If you search inside yourself
There's one thing left to know -
Our joy's been gone for far too long
You must now let me go
