I can still remember
a girl I used to know
one cold day in November
as I watched the falling snow
when she told me she was leaving
I sat smoking on the floor
then she said she'd stopped believing
that love mattered anymore.
It's such a crying shame
she's lost and always so alone
with no one left to blame
she always took the long way home
She said she always feels like crying
but her tears refuse to fall
she doesn't know she's lying
that her tears won't matter much at all
imprisoned by self pity
trying to numb the pain
walking through the city
in the frozen neon rain
It's such a crying shame
she's lost and always so alone
with no one left to blame
she always took the long way home
Wasting her time on these cold lonely streets
she's living her life in the shadows of dreams
it seems
She can't remember
the boy she used to know
one cold day in November
as he watched the falling snow
she told him she was leaving
he sat smoking on the floor
when she said she stopped believing
that love mattered anymore
It's such a crying shame
she's lost and always so alone
with no one left to blame
she always took the long way home
