Lyrics

Your day breaks,

your mind aches,

you find that all her words of (Fmaj7)kind ness lin ger on when she no (C)long er needs you.

She wakes up,

she makes up,

she takes her time and does n’t (Fmaj7)feel she has to hur ry; she no (C)long er needs you.

And in her (Dm)eyes

you see (A7)noth ing,

no sign of love be hind (A7)the (Dm)tears

cried for no one.

A love that should have last (A7)ed (Dm)years.

You want her,

you need her,

and yet you don’t be lieve her (Fmaj7)when she says her love is dead; you (C)think she needs you.

And in her (Dm)eyes

you see (A7)noth ing,

no sign of love be hind (A7)the (Dm)tears

cried for no one.

A love that should have last (A7)ed (Dm)years.

You stay home,

she goes out,

she says that long a go she (Fmaj7)knew some one but now he’s gone; she (C)does n’t need him.

should have last (A7)ed years.
