"There My Future Goes" lyrics

There My Future Goes

The love light in your eye
Is growing dimmer
Day by day
The candle glow
Is flickering low
And fading fast away

The summer in your heart
Is turning cold
As winter snows
I am crying
Love is dying
There my future goes

There goes my future
To the arms of someone new
Although I know nobody else
Could love you like I do

The autumn leaves
Are falling down now
As the cold wind blows
Our love you say
Was yesterday
And there my future goes

If I'd only given
Half my heart
Then something would remain
But I retire
To quench the fire
With tears that fall like rain

The past is all
That I have left
To live with I suppose
My world will end
And his begin
Cause there my future goes

There goes my future
To the arms of someone new
Although I know nobody else
Could love you like I do

The autumn leaves
Are falling down now
As the cold wind blows
Our love you say
Was yesterday
And there my future goes
