Lyrics
Hoping I Was Wrong
Lyrics and music by Winston Apple
One by one the stars begin to shine
They’re so far away, and yet they light up the sky
Another night is falling and I’m still missing you
You’re so far away and I’m left here with nothing
But a mild, mellow case of the blues
I always said that I would love you for the rest of my life
And now I find myself hoping I was wrong
I don’t know who you’re with, or where you are tonight
I only know that you’re not here with me where you belong
They say you’re only lonely
If you feel that way
Oh, but late at night this lonely feeling can be so hard to shake
As I drift off to sleep, I reach out for you and find an empty space
But I’m not sure that I’m really ready for somebody else to take your place
I always said that you were the only one for me
And now I find myself hoping I was wrong
I need somebody, I want someone to share my life
There was a time when it was you, girl
What do I do now that you are gone?
And I’m left here all alone
What can I do?
What do I do now that you are gone?
Now the stars are fading
The sky is turning pink and blue
Another day is dawning and I’m still missing you
Now there’s another lover lying by my side
And though I need her touch
It still doesn’t feel quite right
I always said that I would love you forever
And now I find myself hoping I was wrong
Forever seems like a long time to go on loving you
When I know that you are gone for good this time
And time goes on and on
Leaving me here all alone
What can I do?
What do I do now that you are gone?
