I didn't write the rules, but I know
When the love is gone, you gotta say "So long"
and sometimes the only thing to do is move on
So
Chorus:
Don't forget your love for me
Don't forget this melody
After the breakup breakdown
You gotta know
It was that sweet
Don't forget the light that shone
Don't forget it shone so long
Who can explain the reasons
Love was here
but now it's gone
Desperately I looked into your eyes
Searching for the traces
of days long behind
Long behind
Surely there's gotta be a way
That we can make it happen
Like yesterday
Yesterday
Falling, falling, falling, falling
Falling, falling, falling, falling
I didn't write the rules, but I know
When the love is gone, you gotta say "So long"
and sometimes the only thing to do is move on
So
Chorus
I know there's things that we never said
I probably passed a couple signs that I should've read
We had the love, but the bond wasn't strong
I wonder sometimes where we really went wrong
