When you first walked in

When you took that step, you took my breath

Then you took the rest.

As the days went by

With this new found man right by my side

Now here's goodbye.

'cuz it hurts when it hurts

And it kills when it kills

And the pain it won't fade

But with time you will heal.

I can hear you calling me

I can hear you from across this open sea

I can hear your voice as it is calling me

Calling for somebody to help you be free

But it's not me.

And the more I learned

And the more you taught, the more I found

A way goodbye.

'cuz it hurts when it hurts

And it kills when it kills

And the pain it won't fade

But with time you will heal.

And it hurts when it hurts

And it kills when it kills

And the pain it won't fade

But with time you will heal.

I can hear you calling me

I can hear you from across this open sea

I can hear your voice as it is calling me

Calling for somebody to help you be free

But it's not me.

'cuz I can't change it all

I can't make it right

But I could give you warmth

In the coldest nights.

But I can't change it all

And I can't make it right

But I could give you warmth

In the coldest nights.

I can hear you calling me

I can hear you from across this open sea

I can hear your voice as it is calling me

Calling for somebody to help you be free

But it's not me.
