[Verse 1]
I said goodbye to you, you said goodbye to me
I watched you walk away into a memory
As I listen back to all the scenes that play I hear you say
"It's not your fault you feel this way"

[Verse 2]
Once we were very young, once we were very sure
Our love would last forever more
As I asked myself where dreams have gone
I hear you say, "It's not your fault you can't go on"

[Bridge]
Maybe you were too kind to say where the blame should be
You never noticed any weakness or any fault in me
Maybe you'll be better off, you'll find a towering love
And I'll live to my dying day just wondering where we lost our way

[Verse 3]
Now, I think constantly what can never be
And blame myself for all the faults in me
Though sorrow makes, a darkness falls, a light stream ends, I can begin
I hear you say, "It's best this way, it's not your fault"
