You said you've always loved me
But you didn't know how
You never realized that I could see it in your eyes
But I'm never gonna to see you again
At Seventeen I'd never really seen
A high school friend
Who could have been so green
I'm never see you again
You packed up your bags
And headed to the base
You said you had your duty
And you knew it was your place
You said we'd be apart for a little bit of time
That heart you took with you was mine
I loved you from the start
You were the beating of my heart
Now you've gone away
And I can't live another day
I'm never gonna see you again
I tried to step into your way
To make you think you had to stay
But knew if I had
It would have made you mad and
I knew you'd never want to see me again
You packed up your bags
And headed to the base
You said you had your duty
And you knew it was your place
You said we'd be apart for a little bit of time
That heart you took with you was mine
You left me at the door
And I fell upon the floor
Curled up in a ball
And knew we'd hit the wall
I'm never gonna see you again
I loved you from the start
You were the beating of my heart
Now you've gone away
For the rest of my days
I'm never gonna see you again
