Oh

There was a time when
Broken hearts and broken dreams
Were over
There was a place where
All you could do was
Wish on a four-leaf clover

But now is a new time
There is a new place
Where dreams just can't come true
It started the day when I left you (oh)

I could never love again the way that I loved you (oh)
I could never cry again like I did when I left you
And when we said goodbye
Oh, the look in your eyes
Just left me beside myself without your heart (without your heart)
I could never love again now that we're apart

When I was sorry
It was too late to turn around (turn around)
And tell you so
There was no reason
There was no reason
Just a foolish beat of my heart

I could never love again the way that I loved you (oh)
I could never cry again like I did when I left you
And when we said goodbye
Oh, the look in your eyes
Just left me beside myself without your heart (without your heart)
I could never love again now that we're apart

Oh, can't you see I'm not fooling nobody?
Don't you see the tears are falling down my face?
Since you went away
Break my heart, you slipped away
Didn't know I was wrong
Never meant to hurt you now you're gone

Oh oh oh
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh

I could never love again
Now that we're apart
Now that we're apart, oh
I could never love again
Now that we're apart

    This has nothing to do with what the song means to me and what the song actually means: This came from Debbie gibson herself on an MTV interview a while back on MTV a caller called in and asked her what this song meant and what is was about. She said she just wrote it and there is no meaning.

    In the song, she takes the role of the one who ended the relationship (rather than crying over being dumped): "It started the day when I left you I could never love again the way that I loved you I could never cry again like I did when I left you"
