When I left I thought I would be stronger But in fact, it took away my energy Hard to tell you that I could not really see Beyond the gates of this purgatory I am so tainted now, I cannot wash you off The memories still don't seem to fade When I left, did you even wash your tears? 'Cause mine have been dryin' for days Something in the way Why am I crying for you, babe? Can't stop the rain Time to move on anyway Don't ask me why It's gone So long, goodbye I'm gone 'Cause only sun in the summer lasts It don't hold on it's not lookin' back Even the sun in the summer lasts It don't hold on, it's not comin' back If I kept a hold a little longer I would never think I'd ever get away Don't want to say I tried to keep you Say love is blind, I couldn't see you change No, don't wanna find myself back in that place I have wasted all my tears on fools There was no help for me, no saving grace I had been tryin' for days There was something in the way Why am I crying for you, babe? No I can't stop the rain Time to move on anyway Don't ask me why It's gone So long, goodbye I'm gone 'Cause there was something in the way Why am I crying for you, babe? I can't stand the rain Time to move on anyway 'Don't ask me why It's gone So long, goodbye I'm gone 'Cause only sun in the summer last It don't hold on it's not lookin' back Even the sun in the summer last It don't hold on, it's not comin' back
