At last today I've made the choice
Oh, what a day it's been
I had to break our wedding vow
So I could be your friend
At last today you smiled at me
Just like you used to do
I used to love to see you smile
And you did when I told you I loved you
Then you stopped smiling until today
That's when I told you I'll leave you
You and I had been sharing a home
To others we're husband and wife
But it's been so long
Since we've even been friends
I've forgotten what a kind word it's like
At last today I've made the choice
Oh, what a day it's been
Today your voice was very low
So low that I wanted to cry
And the softer word never touched my ear
Than we knew was the goodbye
Why, you were even nice to me
I thought you'd never be anymore
But today when I walked
Out of your life for good
You even opened the door
At last today I've made the choice
Oh, what a day it's been
I had to break our wedding vow
So I could be your friend
