I would have loved you
But it wasn't meant to be
I would have loved you but instead
I let you walk from me
We danced in light too long
You tried to tell me
That it was evening for you
And time to go home
Could I have saved us
If I'd only walked home with you
'Cause in your smile there was always
A new day
I let you go your way
I let you go your way
And I'll feel happy for you
So long as you smile
And I know I went wrong
Can finally tell you
That you were sacred to me
And that might save me
Close your eyes
Whisper soft
Sleep the night love
And wake up to your new day
While I remain in yesterday
I let you go your way
And I'll feel happy for you
So long as you smile for me
I would have loved you
But it wasn't meant to be
I would have loved you but instead
I let you walk from me
