The city that was never mine...

Without a word, without a tear, I bid goodbye...
to the city that was never mine!

I came here searching for love, a love that was not meant to be,
I came searching for a girl, a girl I knew would never be mine!
I went along those paths, where I felt my future was, but no said the city roads,
"you are meant for better paths"; so...

Without a word, without a tear, I bid goodbye...
to the city that was never mine!

I often dream about her now, now that memories are all that's left,
I wonder why, really why, she would turn me down for the world!
We talked for hours on end, but no said the girl so well, "go", she said, for
"you are meant for better paths"; so...

Without a word, without a tear, I bid goodbye...
to the city that was never mine!

I long to return sometime, to the city I left so long ago,
To its nooks and barren streets, to meet again the girl I loved!
I hope to catch a glimpse of her, bathing in the twilight sun,
I hope to go back again....to the city that was never mine!
