i won´t be here when you come home
i´m sorry if you don´t understand, forgive me if you can
but i can see another road
and i ain´t coming back

don´t look for me around this town
´cause i will be so far away, you´ll never find me anywhere
and i won´t take no souvenirs
no perfumed picture promises
because it´s over
and i ain´t coming back

you gave me everything
and now i´m breaking your heart
you know that i don´t mean
to tear your world apart

i would never leave if i thought you couldn´t stand the pain
a letter in the hall
is written on the wall
a letter with no words of love at all
because it´s over (because it´s over)
and i ain´t coming back

and as i close the door
i know i´m breaking your heart
i should have loved you more
instead i´ve torn your world apart

and as i walk into the lonely afternoon
i feel sad enough
i feel bad enough
and all the times when you are lonely where you are
please don´t hate me then
i just could not pretend oh no

feel the tears
i can feel the tears
running through the years
