Lyrics

Cars Pass By Like Childhood Sweethearts

Forevermore
Forevermore
Why'd she have to leave me?
Lord, I'll never know
Forevermore
She's gone, forevermore
Let me sing a song, about two lovers
A very sad one I know
What made my true love leave me?
She's gone, forevermore
I tried, and I've tried, and I've tried to keep her from
Walking out my door
Oh, I'm so broken-hearted now
She's gone, forevermore
Why'd she have to leave me?
Lord, I'll never know
She's gone, forevermore
Why'd she have to leave me?
Lord, I'll never know
She's gone, forevermore
Why'd she have to leave, leave, leave, leave
She's gone forevermore (leave, leave, leave)
Why'd she have to leave me?
She's gone, forevermore
Why'd she have to leave me?
Lord, I'll never know
She's gone, forevermore
Why'd she have to leave me?
Lord, I'll never know
She's gone, forevermore
Why'd she have to leave me?
Lord, I'll never know
She's gone, forevermore
Why'd she have to leave me?
Lord, I'll never know
She's gone, forevermore
Let me sing a song, about two lovers
A very sad one I know
What made my true love leave me?
She's gone, forevermore (why'd she have to leave?)
I tried, and I've tried, and I've tried to keep her from
Walking out my door
Oh, I'm so broken-hearted now
She's gone, forevermore
Why'd she have to leave me?
Lord, I'll never know
Lord, I'll never know
