I never should've left you here for so long
I never should've stayed away at all
You always said the love we shared was so strong
And you would keep the flame while I was gone
I guess that promise
Was made to be broken
In the darkness
Not a candle burns for me
Oh baby - I found out the hard way
Love waits for no one
Here is where my heart breaks
Cause your love waits for no one
Distance was supposed to make your heart grow fonder
You swore that we could stand the test of time
If leaving here was meant to bring us closer
Then it must've been a cold day in July
Cause now that promise
Is out in the open
And our last kiss
Is just a painful memory
Baby - I found out the hard way
Love waits for no one
Here is where my heart breaks
Cause your love waits for no one
I found out the hard way
That love waits for no one
Here is where my heart breaks
Cause your love waits for no one
I lie awake and wonder why
You couldn't wait to say goodbye
Now you will never know my pain
Or watch these hopes go down in flames
I guess that promise
Was made to be broken
In the darkness
Not a candle burns for me
Baby - I found out the hard way
Love waits for no one
Here is where my heart breaks
Cause your love waits for no one
And I found out the hard way
That love waits for no one
Here is where my heart breaks
Cause your love waits for no one
Love waits for no one
Love waits for no one
Love waits for no one
