The World I Threw Away

TODAY I SAW YOU ON THE STREET
HOW SAD IT WAS FOR US TO MEET
FOR IN THAT MOMENT OF `HELLO`
I FOUND THE WORLD THAT I LET GO
AFTER ALL THE YEARS APART
HOW STRANGE TO FIND YOU IN MY HEART
HOW SAD TO FIND THAT I STILL LOVE YOU SO

WE SPOKE OF ALL THE HAPPY DAYS
BEFORE WE WENT OUR SEPARATE WAYS
SEEING YOU I KNEW THE PAST
HAD CAUGHT UP WITH MY HEART AT LAST
I WAS YOUNG AND FULL OF SPRING
UNTIL I SAW YOUR WEDDINGRING
IT TOLD ME OF THE WORLD I THREW AWAY

VIOLINSOLO

AS WE WHISPERED OUR GOODBYES
I HELD MY TEARS BEHIND MY EYES
YOU KISSED MY CHEEK FOR OLD TIME`S SAKE
AND I COULD FEEL MY POOR HEART BREAK
IT WAS A CRAZY THING TO DO
BUT WHEN YOU LEFT I FOLLOWED YOU
I HAD TO SEE THE WORLD I THREW AWAY

I SAW THE STREETS I LEFT BEHIND
I SAW MY YESTERDAY'S UNWIND
AND IN THE PARK AND IN THE SQUARE
THE PAST WAS WAITING EVERYWHERE
WITH EACH & EVERY MEMORY
I KNEW THE PAST HAD PASSED FOR ME
BUT STILL I WATCHED THE WORLD I THREW AWAY

I WATCHED YOUR WINDOW - THRU THE NGHT
HOW SWEET THE DREAM BEHIND THE LIGHT
BUT WHEN I SAW YOUR LIGHT GROW DIM
I KNEW YOU WERE FUCKING HIM
AND NOW I WANDER FROM YOUR DOOR
GOODBYE MY LOVE FOREVER MORE
GOODBYE TO YOU
THE WORLD I THREW ……… AWAY
