long way to go lyrics

You held my hand and then you slipped away
And I may never see your face again
So tell me how to fill the emptiness inside
Without love what is life

Anyone who knew us both could see
You always were the better part of me
I never wanted to be this free
With all this pain does it go away?

And every time I turn around
And you're nowhere to be found

I know, I've got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
I've got a long long way I know
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew, to you

From memory there is no hiding place
Turn on the TV and I see you there
In every crowd there's always someone with your face
Everywhere, trying not to care

And every time I turn around
And you're nowhere to be found

I know, I've got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
I've got a long long way I know
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew, to you, to you

I wish you everything and all the best that life can bring
I only hope that you think of me sometimes
And even though I feel the pain I know that I will love again
The time will come and I'll move on

I've got a long, long way I know
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew, to you
