Well it could have been a little bit better
If we?d tried a little bit harder
A little truth and understanding
Goes further than the fussin? and fighting
Now 2,000 miles away your memory still haunts me
Take me back to those days of you
And this time I?ll do better
I?d trade my diamonds and all my money honey
To hold you once again
A love like ours ununited has to be a sin
I don?t mean to come on so strong
But a love like ours can?t wait to long for our time
(CHORUS)
Time waits for no one, time just keeps on going
And we are no exception to the rule
Yea 2,000 miles between us and million miles of heartache
And I can?t believe that you could be so cruel
I?d trade my diamonds and all my money honey
To hold you once again
A love like ours ununited has to be a sin
Now I don?t mean to come on so strong
But a love like ours can?t wait to long for our time
(CHORUS)
Time waits for no one, time just keeps on going
And we are no exception to the rule
Yea 2,000 miles between us and million miles of heartache
And I can?t believe that you could be so cruel
Time waits for no one, time just keeps on going
And I can?t believe that you could be so cruel
