The pain of goodbye and the teardrops in her eyes   Ain't nothing to the first long night in this empty house alone   The sweetest times of a romance    Will fill your mind the last slow dance   Hold on tight, will you make her be the one to say   It's all gone and you know that it's all gone      The lights go down, the charge is done   The battle is over and the other side won   It don't help to know that it ain't a matter of trying   I'll hold you close one last time   The cost of love might be my mind   It hurts like hell when you're living in a love that's dying   And you know that's it all over but the crying      I remember everything we've done   And the nights when we were one   The silence comes   I can't imagine my life without you   But you've got plans and I've got mine   It's gonna take a long, long time   I hope someday I can smile    And think, how crazy I was about you   So crazy about you      The lights go down, the charge is done   The battle is over and the other side won   It don't help to know that it ain't a matter of trying   I'll hold you close one last time   The cost of love might be my mind   It hurts like hell when you're living in a love that's dying   And you know that's it all over but the crying      I don't know the reason    And there's nothing to blame but time   And I've looked into your eyes and they don't lie      The lights go down, the charge is done   The battle is over and the other side won   It don't help to know that it ain't a matter of trying   I'll hold you close one last time   The cost of love might be my mind   It hurts like hell when you're living in a love that's dying   And you know that's it all over but the crying   It all over but the crying, it all over but the crying   It all over but the crying
