I'll be the first to admit
Not the bearer of kind words have I been
Even left you all alone
Sitting in the middle of
A dark and windy road
And I've got to let you know
Just how sorry
I am about that

I cry from the bottom of my heart
For I've seen that we have grown apart
And though time has conspired against us
I know nothing will keep us down
If love can still be found

Is it too much to ask of you
To take a moment to relive again
Sunny days gone by
Laughter shared sitting 'round
A table with scores all tied
I've just got to know
Are your memories
Happy or sad

I cry from the bottom of my heart
For it seems we've let ourselves slip too far
We've let time conspire against us
But I'm not giving up on you
Will you help me see us through

Though you may scoff at my words
Think to yourself, "They're only for the birds!"
Still I pray you'll believe this much is true
That he's smiling his love down upon you

I cry from the bottom of my heart
For I pray that we may never grow so far apart
Again, and though time may conspire against us
I'll keep holding on to your smile
And this love will last awhile
