Lyrics

Four Long Years

Four long years
To say
You're not coming back
To me either way
I volunteered
To stay
Am I dwelling in the past?
You'll never change

I fall in love
I fall in love all the way
I did what I needed to stay
To let go, someone's gotta pay
The cost

It's truly a shame
It's truly a shame
It's all I thought about
It's truly a shame

Four long years
To grow
Heard you're moving on
Well I shoulda known
No one here
Would know
You look so relaxed
It just didn't show

Well I followed love
I followed love all the way
Thought I was winning the game
With no more moves to make
Thе score

It's truly a shame
It's truly a shame
All I thought about
It's truly a shamе

It's truly a shame
It's truly a shame
All I thought about
It's truly a shame
