Blues Traveler Love of My Life lyrics

I just couldn't cry, no matter how hard I try
I knew love we shared was dead
Until she gave me a letter with some words she wrote down
I swear this is what she said, she said

She said, "Love of my life our first night together
We sat in the rain and we talked forever
Love of my life your carefree way
Showed me the potential of each and every day

But love of my life
You told me today
That my place was gone
From your carefree way, I realized", She said

She said, "Love of my life then now I finally see
Carefree way wasn't meant for me
The pain I feel you just can't understand
You'd think it as fire, pull away your hand

But love of my life
When you told me today
That my, my place was gone
From your carefree way, I realized"

You know she realized she must learn for once on her own

Not to let her days burn because she's alone
She needed to learn for once on her own
Not to let her days burn, because she's alone

She needed to learn for once on her own
Not to let her days burn, because she's alone

She said

She said, "Love of my life your arms were never shy
To hold me tight when I needed to cry
Love of my life you made me believe
For that I do love you but I know I must leave

Because love of my life
When you told me today
My, my place was gone
From your carefree way, I realized"

Oh yes she realized
And for once so did I
Because it occurred to me the love of my life was she
And then and only then I started to cry
