Gone are the lonely days, I thought, my dear
Taking away all of the solo years
I thought you were the one — that felt so clear
Now I don't know whether to trust or fear
[Chorus:]
I thought I knew your name,
Finding the truth and now feeling ashamed
I thought I knew your way,
Hearing your words that I just can't obey
I thought for just one day
I would give in and start walking away
I thought I had my say —
That I'm in love and I don't want to stay
Gone are the sorry eyes, I thought, my dear
Wiping away all of the lonely tears
I saw my life begin, it felt so clear
I thought you loved me back, it felt sincere
[Chorus]
