Close To You

Did you know there were times in my life
When I thought I was close to you
Growing up with a boy by my side as a partner in crime
What a time
And we both didn’t know that one day
We’d be saying goodbye
Nothing ever lasts forever
My oh my

I remember the times that we played
In the neighbourhood close to you
And that promise you gave me that warm summer night in July
Time goes by
And they’re saying that you have been
Growing up much more than I
Nothing ever lasts forever
My oh my

[Chorus]
Tell me why
Does this make me feel so sad and lonely
When I
Never thought you could be the one and only
Goodbye past
Is it true that the good things don’t last

Now you tell me there’s somebody else
In your life that is close to you
And I desperately try to find something that I could reply
I could cry
But there’s one thing I have to keep
Telling myself to get by
Nothing ever lasts forever
My oh my

[Chorus]
Tell me why
Does this make me feel so sad and lonely
When I
Never thought you could be the one and only
Goodbye past
Is it true that the good things don’t last

As the shadows grow longer
My heartache gets stronger
And maybe it’s time to move on
But it’s hard to ignore
What has happened before
And I cannot forget
All the times I was close to you

[Chorus]
Tell me why
Does this make me feel so sad and lonely
When I
Never thought you could be the one and only
Goodbye past
Is it true that the good things don’t last
Is it true that the good times have passed
