We were together for a little while.   Holding you so tight I was so proud.      I could pick you from the crowd.   And I said to the Lord please, help me out.   I'm wishin' upon these fallin' stars.   And spending most of my time in these parts   Thinking of you and wishin' you were here   Sailin' down and wastin' all my tears      Sittin' and knowin' someday we'll be through   Facing the fact that I know I'm losing you   I don't want to face the fact   But I guess I'll have to take that chance   Of losing you      Bridge      And now I know that I was wrong.   And I'm tryin' to make it here on my own.   But now it does seem all alone   It's easy to see that you're just all grown   Thinking of you and wishin' you were here.   Sailin' down and wastin' all my tears      Sittin' and knowing someday we'll be through   Facing the fact that I know I'm losing you   I don't want to face the fact   But I guess I'll have to take that chance   Of losing you      I don't want to face the fact, oh   But I guess I'll have to take that chance   Of losing you   Of losing you
