Like a sweet melody, memories of your love still linger on inside of me
A reoccurring dream, visions of you return night after night so hauntingly,
I lay awake 'til four or five without you by my side
I never knew how much you were a part of me
I was a fool, so unaware but now I see
So many words, I never took the time to say
I guess you don't know what you've got until you've gone and let it slip away
After we said goodbye
Baby I finally realized
That I just cannot walk away
'Cause this love for you still remains in my heart
And you come to me… everytime that I close my eyes you're all that I can see
I am never free, even when I'm asleep I feel your presence here with me
I try so hard to just hold on, when I wake you're gone
I never knew how much you were a part of me
I was a fool, so unaware but now I see
So many words, I never took the time to say
I guess you don't know what you've got until you've gone and let it slip away
After we said goodbye
Baby I finally realized
That I just cannot walk away
'Cause this love for you still remains in my heart
Although you've gone away I tell you my feelings never change
I'm missing you every night and day and it's driving me crazy baby
My love for you remains I'm tired of playing foolish games
I know that I'm the one to blame
And I miss you like crazy, baby
After we said goodbye
Baby I finally realized
That I just cannot walk away
'Cause this love for you still remains in my heart
After we said goodbye
Baby I finally realized
That I just cannot walk away
'Cause this love for you still remains in my heart
My heart… baby I miss you
I was a fool to let you walk away
I realize girl
After we said goodbye
