Even Now

(album: Even Now - 1991)

Even now, your memory takes my breath away.
I'd give my heart to relive yesterday
When our love was sometihng new.
And even now, your perfume clings to the pillow where
I reach out for you but no one's there.
That's when I have to face the truth.

Too many times I lie and make you cry
And never see how it was tearing you apart.
Now I see how much I lost
Each day I sadly pay the cost
Of breaking both our hearts.

Told your friends the next time that she talks to you.
To say I'm so alone and feeling blue
And if you want me to I'll crawl.
So if you find my memory lingers on your mind.
That telephone won't ring a second time.
I'll be here waiting for your call.

Please come home.
I learned how bad it hurts to be alone.
And how it feels to wake and find love gone.
I'll make it up to you somehow.

I need you here.
And I guess that makes us, even now...
