Give  me a minute to compose  myself, it’s been
Long,  long time since you  been gone
I  can still remember conversations  we had
 too bad  that’s all that now  lingers on
So  many times I nearly fooled  myself that some
Body  like you could give a damn  about me
But  then one day you stepped into  my life,
 All my strife  was a fleeting  memory
Over  and over in my head  at night  (What went wrong…)
Didn’t  lose the battle, didn’t give up  the fight  (What went wrong…)
To  let you go then didn’t make  things right  (What went wrong…)
Can’t  hide the tears from my eyes now that love’s  gone and passed me by…
During  my life I somehow steered  you wrong
From  the road once again was driving us  way
I  pushed aside the things that meant  so much
 With hope  that you’d be happy  some day
I  wear regret now like the lines  on my face
Not  a day passes on that you don’t cross  my mind (You don’t cross my mind…)
Couldn’t  raise the spirits of a broken  heart
 And chance  the ?
Over  and over in my head  at night  (What went wrong…)
Didn’t  lose the battle, didn’t give up  the fight  (What went wrong…)
To  let you go then didn’t make  things right  (What went wrong…)
Can’t  hide the tears from my eyes now that love’s  gone and passed me by…
 One time through verse chords, once through chorus...
Can’t  hide the tears from my eyes now that love’s  gone and passed me by…
But  then one day I gathered  up the nerve
To  trip all of those waves I vowed not  to cross
In  for this pain that flow deep  down inside
 That still  housed the dreams  that all is not lost
Upon  the threshold I now made  my ascent
towards  the door I should close on one  careless days
Without  a look, just pass them buzzer  and in
 That your  name, long gone, it faded away
Over  and over in my head  at night  (What went wrong…)
Didn’t  lose the battle, didn’t give up  the fight  (What went wrong…)
To  let you go then didn’t make  things right  (What went wrong…)
Can’t  hide the tears from my eyes now that love’s  gone and passed me by…
 Key Change for this Part - now in A:
 Love’s gone
 Love’s gone
 Love’s gone
 Now that love’s gone and passed me by…
