Go Our Own Way I sit here, with tears slipping quietly down my face, and wonder where you are and who you're with. I know I can never be yours, nor you mine, And I don't dream about a future for us. I don't hate you and I never will, but I really don't understand. Maybe I'm still a child, but I doubt it. After knowing a love like yours I could never be a child again. There is no turning back, You must go your way and me, my way. But I do ask you to remember the quiet moments we spent alone, The way we loved each other, but please, don't come back, I love you too much. DLS © 1973 Why? Snow falls gently to the ground, As I sit at my window and ask myself "why"? Why did I threaten to leave you alone? Why did I leave you and start on my own? Why did I come here without any hope? What can I do, 'cause I really can't cope? DLS © 1972 I Tried To Forget The tears have stopped now, and the pain has dulled, but how can I forget a love that will last forever? I tried to forget you, but I failed and now I know that I'll never forget. My heart tears itself apart, when I think of how happy we could have been. But that's all changed now, you can't turn back, it's gone from us forever. I wish I was a child again, so innocent and free and alive, only caring from one day to the next. I look at my life ahead of me, and wonder what I'll find, and what I'll do without you. Maybe you'll come back someday, but for now, I'll only care from one day to the next, if I can.
