I Let You Walk Away - Neil Sedaka

I believe that nothing lasts forever

Promises won’t help us stay together

Life for us was never hearts and flowers my friend

It seems we couldn’t solve lifes problems

Maybe it’s because we tried so seldom

So much must change today

That I can only hope and pray

As I watch you leave the room that I’ll see you very soon

And it’s all that I can do to keep from running after you

And though I wanted you

I let you walk away

It’s just a simple case of heartache

My hands begin to tremble and my knees shake

Somewhere along the line I hope we can make amends

I believe that nothing lasts forever

Promises won’t help us stay together

You may come home one day

Till then I only hope and pray

As I watch you leave the room that I’ll see you very soon

And it’s all that I can do to keep from running after you

And though I wanted you

I let you walk away
