Lyrics
I just heard the news
I just heard, it?s too late to talk to you
I always thought that we would have another day
Now I regret you cannot hear me when I say
There is no need for feeling blue
The song inside my heart is you
Though you can?t be near to me
I will hold you in my memory
Life's too short; you still had so much left to give
In my heart the love you gave will always live
There is no need for feeling blue
The song inside my heart is you
And when all is said and done
Doesn?t matter what we lost or what we won
?Cause all we have at the end of the day
Is the love that we gave away
There is no need for feeling blue
The song inside my heart is you
The song inside my heart is you..is you
