Lyrics:
Tomorrow used to be a day away
Now love is gone and you're into someone far away.
I never thought the day would come
When I would see his hand, not mine,
holding onto yours because I could not find the time.
Now I can't deny
nothing lasts forever
I don't want to leave
and I see the tear drops in your eyes
I don't want to live to see the day we say goodbye
Now there comes another part of life that I call alone
sitting at a bar with Chris
and I can't leave 'cause my house ain't no home, no.
I just wanna touch you girl
I wanna feel you close to me
Without your love I would give up now
and walk away so easily.
So maybe while you're young
We'll figure out together
that even with the pain, there's a remedy
and we'll be all right
I don't want to live to see the day we say goodbye.
When I first met you I couldn't love anyone
but you stole my dreams and you made me see
that I can walk under the sun
and I can still be me
and now I can't deny nothing lasts forever.
But I don't want to leave and see the teardrops in your eyes
So baby while we're young let's figure out together
that even with the pain there's a remedy
and we'll be all right.
I don't want to live to see the day we say goodbye,
we say goodbye, oh goodbye, goodbye.

One word describes this song...beautiful! The songwriter has obviously known heartbreak like most of us.

[themadamej]

@drproctor13 I agree with you......I think it would be difficult to write a song like this unless one had felt the harsh wrenching pain of their heart breaking.......

[pakkinen]

awesome. I see Im not the only one who made it trough tough times with this CD, which is a piece of art and I still keep it and listen to since I bought it back in 1995

[themadamej]

@pakkinen i know what you mean....seems that Hootie really has touched a lot of hearts in a big way....

[xthexemoxmuffinx]

This song kills me because about 6 months ago my fiance left....

[themadamej]

Love it beautiful.Straight from the heart.

@1ROCKDOG100 This is all Hootie! It was written by Darius and the other members of the group. This is the original.

[TheAjt09]

there' s nothing worse, whilst breaking up with someone you truly love, then hearing this. It makes you weep.

[TheRyanOrlando]

This song is better Acoustic only, no piano. like the live version ----->

Hootie & The Blowfish, one of the most underrated bands of the 90s.

How can you not like Hootie...Especially Cracked Rear View, best album of the 90's!!

@drproctor13 I've always consider myself unbreakable when it comes to emotions. However when I hear a song like this I can't help but to be moved. Anyone with a heart broken or not can truly feel the emotion.
