Lyrics
There’s a love in my heart that I’d been keeping I don’t know how to give it away to someone new Oh you walked out the door and left me weeping And I can’t change overnight from loving you If I can’t walk with you then I’ll walk all alone Where my feet touch the ground then that’s where I’ll call home I don’t like all this loneliness that I go through But I can’t change overnight from loving you All you say to forget the lips I used to kiss Find someone to take the place of a love I once knew Yes you walked out the door and left me weeping And I can’t change overnight from loving you
