There was a time when 
Broken hearts and broken dreams 
Were over. 
There was a place where 
All you could do was 
Wish on a four leaf clover. 
 
But now is a new time 
There is a new place 
Where dreams just can't come true. 
It started the day when I left you 
 
I could never love again the way that I loved you 
I could never cry again like I did when I left you 
And when we said goodbye, 
Oh the look in your eyes 
Just left me beside myself without your heart 
(without your heart) 
I could never love again now that we're apart 
 
When I was sorry 
It was too late to turn around (turn around) 
And tell you so. 
There was no reason 
There was no reason 
Just a foolish beat of my heart. 
 
I could never love again the way that I loved you 
I could never cry again like I did when I left you 
And when we said goodbye, 
Oh the look in your eyes 
Just left me beside myself without your heart 
(without your heart) 
I could never love again now that we're apart 
 
Oh, can't you see I'm not fooling nobody 
Don't you see the tears are falling down my face? 
Since you went away 
Break my heart, you slipped away 
Didn't know I was wrong 
Never meant to hurt you now you're gone 
 
I could never love again now that we're apart. 
(now that we're apart) 
I could never love again now that we're apart.
