So many years gone Still I remember How did I ever let my heart believe In one who never Gave enough to me And so many years gone Love that was so wrong And I can't forget the way It used to be And how you changed the touch Of love for me [CHORUS:] You were my one more chance I never thought I'd find You were the one romance I've always known in my mind No one will ever touch me more And I only hope that in return I might have saved the best of me For you And we'll have no ending If we can hold on And I think I've gone this far Because of you Could be no other love but ours Will do (repeat chorus) No one will ever touch me more And I only hope that in return No matter how much we have to learn I saved the best of me for you
