You're the best friend ive got
And i can't tell you that I love you
oh right from the start I knew
I was gonna fall - fall for you

bridge:
You're someone elses woman
So I do all I can
To try not to think about you

chorus:

Absent from the heart for so long
now another is breaking your heart
Been away for too long
Now another is breaking your heart...

Take a look at our lives
when the days were young
we promised each other true love
as a child, I meant every word

bridge
chorus

ad lib

I retreat back from you
its eating my heart inside
if you could see what I see
then I'm sure you would realise

bridge, then chorus
