Songwriters: Hensley, Ken She sits so quietly At the window by the door Wondering if she'll Ever smile again Her eyes filled with memories And her life in sad array Unaware of the colours of the day She dare not cry for fear Her hope might disappear But if she cared to try I know it all could be so clear
But she's living in the past She didn't know it wouldn't last And it's a long, long, lonely road Oh, to go down
The treasured names You call each other just for fun And as you woke She kissed your eyes You killed it all when it had Only just begun What's it take to make you realise
Love isn't easy though Many like to think it is But you must learn To give and take or know What you will miss
But she's living in the past She didn't know it wouldn't last And it's a long, long, lonely road Oh, to go down
