The Note

(album: Next To You - 1989)

The note was short but Lord so strong
It simply said I can't go on and live a life
With someone I don't love

He couldn't tell me face to face
Oh, but how my world was changed
By the hand that held the pen
That wrote the words that broke the heart
Of the one the only one that really loves you

My tears fell down like falling rain
But they can't wash away the pain
How can I go to sleep not lying in your arms

You didn't mean to break my heart
But how my world was torn apart
By the hand that held the pen
That wrote the words that broke the heart
Of the one the only one that really loves you

With one stroke of the pen you wrote off all my dreams
Erasing all the plans we made together

There's no one that I can blame
Oh but how my world was changed
By the hand that held the pen
That wrote the words that broke the heart
Of the one the only one that really loves you
