[Verse 1]
I've been a long long time—waiting for you
I didn't want to see you go—oh, no, no
And now, it's hurting so much, what can I do?
I wanted you to be my wife
The days are passing slowly since you've gone
Your memories are all I have—yes, I have
I sit here waiting, but—you'll never show
Without you, I can't carry on—oh, my baby
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 2]
You said you'd always love me—all of my life
And then you said your last goodbye—yeah, goodbye
Why the sudden changes, why all of the lies?
I should have seen it in your eyes
The endless hours of heartache—waiting for you
My summer love has turned to rain—all the pain
The silent emptiness—of one sided love
My life means nothing now you're gone—oh, my baby
[Instrumental Outro]

Your memories are all I have—yes, I have
I sit here waiting, but—you'll never show
Without you, I can't carry on—oh, my baby

My summer love has turned to rain—all the pain
The silent emptiness—of one sided love
My life means nothing now you're gone—oh, my baby
