Days Go By

Thinking of you as days go by

Turn the radio on and I start to cry

Another sad love song plays just for me

Reminding me of how we used to be

I remember the way you'd laugh at my jokes

And that night at the lake when we rented the boat

I remember the way we danced at the prom

So why did you leave and where have you gone?

Was it something I did or something I said?

Why didn't you just stay and tell me instead?



Haunted by you as days go by

I still see your face when I close my eyes

Thinking you'll come back I'm still in denial

Wishing I'll wake up again to your smile

I try to burn your pictures but never succeed

Somehow they seem to be just what I need

I don't want to hate you or even forget

There's nothing about 'us' I'll ever regret

I still wonder why you walked out that day

Why did you leave, why couldn't you stay?



Memories fade as days go by

Tear stains on my pillow have finally dried

Over the heartache, I've finally moved on

Yet, I still miss the arms where I felt I belonged

I think about you less and less everyday

And maybe in time it will all go away

You were and will always be the love of my life

But some things must end like we did that night

If it was something I did, then sorry I am

But if I knew why, I'd be happier then



Did you think of me as days went by?

Did you ever take a moment to cry?

Did you even think about how I would feel

When you walked out the door and left me here?

Do you ever stop to wonder how I'm doing these days?

Do you ever think about how it'd be if you'd stayed?

Do memories haunt you like they haunted me?

Do you ever break down and just want to scream?

That's how I felt when you walked away

And I'll never know why cause you just wouldn't say
