Don't you fear
Don't you cry
Let's not say that long goodbye
If I were you
And you were I
I wouldn't feel so down tonight
'Cause it's not me
Ann Marie
Who caught your heart
And set you free
Don't mind me, Ann Marie
It's just the way it has to be
Although I've known you a long time
You held my hand for the first time
You held it close and it seemed like
You wouldn't let go
For a while
And though you feel
That it's for real
My heart's no something you can steal
So take my word
and leave me, go
Your love's not something I should know
Although I've known you a long time
You held my hand for the first time
You held it close and it seemed like
You wouldn't let go
For a while
Now it's the end
So don't pretend
My heart's a garden you can tend
Or it's a coat that you can mend
Or it's a rule that we can't bend
'Cause it's a rule that we can bend
I can't go on and still pretend,
When I'm in love until the end
It always will be you, my friend
