don't turn your back
don't close that door
are you not waiting for me anymore.
the promises we made
the love you gave
do you expect me to believe it just goes away.
with every step
you're losing me
and everything we could have been.
we preached true love
and eternity
playing house with a family.
where'd that dream go
of you and me
it's not my fault I didn't mean to cheat.
I said I was sorry
can't you see
she didn't mean anything like you and me.
don't turn your back
don't close that door
guess there's no us anymore.
