you know it was never really mentioned
one word about a last goodbye
you and me, we were off in our directions
not lost, but it was love alright

and yet
i’ve no regret
but i won’t forget
honey, how bout you?

i didn’t know we were slipping baby
til our tail was spinning wild
our love hit that black ice
oh i can see it now
i didn’t know we really had it baby
til it all came to an end

we weren’t meant for forever
just one hell of a way back when

how many songs from brokenhearted folks mourn the one that got away
you and me i think we’re on to something darling
nail the high note and leave that stage

and yet
i don’t forget
still no regrets
honey, how bout you?
i didn’t notice we were burning baby til our flame had flickered out
our love froze to black ice
oh i can feel it now
i didn’t know we even had it baby til it all came to an end

we weren’t meant for forever
just one hell of a way back when

our heads never left their perch over our heels
maybe that’s the time to take a dive
before it gets real
but if we weren’t growing together we sure spun a wicked wheel
some love needs to leave to be revealed

I didn’t know what we were sipping baby
til our love was blacking out
poured one more over black ice
we smiled and took em down
now all that i remember is we had it baby
and without some awful end

we weren’t meant for forever
just one hell of a way back when
