Never wanted to let you down
 
 Never wanted us to fight
 
 Oh, sweet love o' mine
 
 I guess this goodbye to you and I
 
  
  Time is a stubborn affair
 
 The distance was too much to bear
 
 Oh, with a heavy heart
 
 I must leave the one I love
  
 
 We could've tried a bit harder, mm
 
 I could've practiced more patience, mm
 
 Look at this good love we've wasted
 
 Another good thing gone
  
 
 Neither one of us is wrong
 
 Neither one of us is right
 
 I never fully have faith, you see
 
 'Cause I always knew you'd fall out of love with me
  
 
 We could've tried a bit harder, mm
 
 I could've practiced more patience, mm
 
 Look at this good love we've wasted
 
 Another good thing gone
  
 
 So why should I change?
 
 If love always ends this way
  
 
 You couldn't put down that last drink
 
 I couldn't get that shit passed me
 
 We could've tried a bit harder, mm
 
 But I just ain't got that much patience, mm
 
 Look at this good love we've wasted
 
 Another good thing gone
