So you think it's over

So you think that down's the only way out

A sad excuse for lovers

With your head held high and your heart still full of doubt

It's just like you to scorn, the only one who'll mourn

The day he doesn't love you

When the time comes I'll cry

On the day that you cut the thread

When my heart tears I'll cry

So you gave up giving

As you sit and smile when the awkward silence falls

Deny the life you're living

Just a fleeting love that you only half recall

It's just like you to make a passion turn to hate

The day he doesn't love you

When the time comes I'll cry

On the day that you cut the thread

When my heart tears I'll cry

Still we're here together

Feeling helpless as our heaven turns to hell

The taker and the giver

Washed in anger when we think how far we fell

It's just like you to take the step that makes the break

The day he doesn't love you, oh

When the time comes I'll cry

When the time comes I'll cry

When the time comes I'll cry

When the time comes I'll cry

Cry, cry, oh
