**Tom Bahler

/ After all we've done and after all we've been through/ How could you leave me?/ She's out of my life// Oh, oh, she's out of my  life, she's out of my life/ And I don't know whether to laugh or cry/ I don't know whether to live or die/ And it cuts like a knife/ She's out of my life//It's out of my hands /It's out of my hands/ To think for two years, she was here/ And I took her for  granted/ I was so cavalier/ And the way that it stands/ She's out of my hands //So I've learned that love's not possession/ And I  learned that love won't wait / Now I've learned that love needs expression/ But I've learned too late/ And she's…//She's out of my life, she's out of my life/ Damned in decision, and cursed in pride/ I kept my love for her locked deep inside/And the way  that it stands/ She's out of my hands// Damned in decision and cursed in pride/ I kept my love for her locked real deep inside/ And it cuts like a knife, oh yes it does/ She's out of my life/ She's out of my life/
