There was a time when
Broken hearts and broken dreams
Were over
There was a place where
All you could do was
Wish on a four-leaf clover

But, now is a new time
There is a new place
Where dreams just can't come true
It started the day when I left you, oh

Chorus:
I could never love again
The way that I loved you
I could never cry again
Like I did when I left you
And when we said goodbye
Oh, the look in your eyes
Just left me beside myself
Without your heart (without your heart)
I could never love again
Now that we're apart

When I was sorry
It was too late to turn around (turn around)
And tell you so
There was no reason
There was no reason
Just a foolish beat of my heart

Chorus

Oh, can't you see
I'm not fooling nobody
Don't you see the tears
Are falling down my face
Since you went away
Break my heart, you slipped away
Didn't know I was wrong
Never meant to hurt you
Now you're gone

I could never love again
Now that we're apart (now that we're apart)
I could never love again
Now that we're apart
