[Verse 1]
Love will abide
Take things in stride
Sounds like good advice
But there's no one by my side

[Verse 2]
Time washes clean
Love's wound unseen
That's what someone told me
But I don't know what it means

[Chorus]
'Cause I've done everything I know
To try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long, long time

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Caught in my fears
Blinking back the tears
I can't say you hurt me
'Cause you never let me near

[Chorus]
An' now, I done everything I know
To try and make you mine
And I think it's gonna hurt me for a long, long time

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
Wait for the day
You go away
Knowing that you'd warned me
Of the price I have to pay

[Verse 5]
Love's fond lost
Who knows the cost
Living in the memory
Of a love that never was

[Chorus]
'Cause I've done everything I know
To try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long, long time

[Chorus]
I've done everything I know
To try and make you mine
And I think it's gonna hurt me for a long, long time

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
'Cause I've done everything I know
To try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long, long time
