From the recording Where the Road Bends
Lyrics
The feeling came slowly
That it wasn’t the same
The fire had burned out
But nobody was to blame.
I thought you were the one
I believed what I had said
Now the words, they just lay there
On my side of the bed.
I’d tell you I still love you
I’d tell you everything will be alright
I’d tell you nothing could come between you and me
Oh, I wish that I could tell you lies like these.
I don't know the reason
Why I drifted away
I know you’re searching for the right words
To get me to stay
Now I need you more than want you
But I don’t need you that way.
It's been years and how I’ve tried
But there’s nothing more that I can say.
And I’d tell you I still love you
I’d tell you everything will be alright
I’d tell you nothing could come between you and me
Oh, I wish that I could tell you lies like these.
I’ll keep the tv,
You can keep the car.
I hope everything works out for you wherever you are.
And I wish that I still loved you
I wish that everything could be alright
I wish that nothing had come between you and me
Oh, I wish that I could tell you
How I wish that I could tell you
I still wish that I could tell you…
Oh, I wish that I could tell you lies like these.
