My dear you’ve been gone for such a long time
You know you have driven me out of my mind
You left me alone and went on your way
And my broken heart the price it must pay
The sigh of the wind the beat of the rain
Bring back to my heart this feeling of pain
I’ve tried to forget but it never will be
For my broken heart just won’t set me free
When I close my eyes or look into space
I see not the dark but your smilin’ face
Wherever I go whatever I say
My poor achin’ heart will have its way
Well time must go on til my heart is still
Til that very day I’ll follow your will
The pain will not die for it must live on
And I can’t forget you left me alone
