Lyrics
1. Love was like a bubble, so beautiful and fair
Just a broken bubble that faded in the air
After all it brought me, the happiness I knew
After what you taught me, I can’t believe we’re through
Chorus:
Even tho’ I heard you when you said Goodbye to me
Even tho’ I see another hold you tenderly
Tho’ I’m sure our love is just a thing that used to be
Still I can’t believe it’s true
Tho’ I know that you’ve forgotten everything you vowed
And I’m sure you humbled me to make another proud
Even when you pass me like a stranger in a crowd
Still I can’t believe it’s true
Searching for the sunshine I found it in vain
For I only found it to lose it again
Every new tomorrow brings sorrow and pain
For you left me standing right out in the rain
Everything I hear and every single thing I see
Should be proof enough that you are really thru with me
But down in my heart I keep repeating constantly
I just can’t believe it’s true
2. Love that I’ve grown used to still lingers with me yet
Even tho’ I choose to, I just can’t forget
Tho’ our roads have severed and we’re apart, we two
I’ll go on forever, believing it’s not true
