You tell me you've never loved anyone this way   And my willing heart is falling deeper   With every word you say   But it's so hard knowing      You're not even mine   She came along before my time   Though you promise we'll be   Together forever someday      Isn't that what you told her?   Isn't that what she believed?   Every night when you'd hold her   She was all you'd ever need      You swear that I'll be different   That you won't make me cry   Isn't that what you told her?   Now you're telling her goodbye      You tell me that your love like   A never ending river flows   But I just can't help but wonder   How deep that river goes      You say you'll love me till time is no more   But I know those words have been spoken before   You'll stand beside me   And I'll never be alone      Isn't that what you told her?   Isn't that what she believed?   Every night when you'd hold her   She was all you'd ever need      You swear that I'll be different   That you won't make me cry   Isn't that what you told her?   Now you're telling her goodbye
