i'm gone lyrics

When you came to me
You said, "Love could not erase
The ever present memory of another face"
I tried to make you love me
How could I be so blind
To think I'd be the one to change your mind"

And if I'm gone before you start
Well you can find me in your heart
Who can say if it's right wrong
I've waited for you too long
And if I can't hold on
I'm gone

When you came to me
I said, "Love will find a way
For every heart that leaves another heart must stay"
I guess you couldn't see
Past the shadow's in the night
It seems the time for us just wasn't right

And if I'm gone before you start
Well you can find me in your heart
Who can say if its right wrong
I've waited for you too long
And if I can't hold on
I'm gone
