Said you always be my friend, said you'd love me to the end

But at first I could not receive you, time has passed

now I know that I can believe you

I don't know why, don't know why you'd ever do it for me

Jake (Jackie) you know I still get lonely

I guess sometimes I just forget

that when I'm down you pick me up and get me going

Sad and blue, it's your love that helps me get through it

I don't know why, don't know why you'd ever do it for me

I can't turn back to the life I had

Before we met, I was so sad

I know it's sometimes hard, dark clouds descend on me

Like waves of fear of doubt, my past comes to haunt me

(repeat)

I can't turn back to the life I had

Before we met nothing meant much to me

I can't turn back, my life was empty

Before we met, nothing meant much to me

I can't turn back, I was so sad
