NOTE: THIS SONG HAS RECENTLY BEEN REWRITTEN. THE FIRST SET OF LYRICS ARE THE ORIGINAL AS RECORDED. THE SECOND SET ARE THE NEW LYRICS AND WILL BE RE-RECORDED. WOULDN’T YOU LET ME © 2002 Dennis Crossland Verse 1 There's no use in tryin' to explain what did or didn't go wrong or right It wouldn't do any good to lay any blame we're just two ships passing in the night Chorus Goodbye my love goodbye I won't say "don't forget me" I didn't know you, didn't I try Or wouldn't you let me Verse 2 Here I am once again on the shore feet firmly planted in shifting sand I've been here so many times before it's getting easier to stand Chorus Bridge It could have been a love song, but it's just me reminisin' Just me and the wind singing Verse 3 Now the tide is a risin' wind whips 'round my thoughts It seems to be harmonizin' with a melody I've caught Chorus N E W LYRICS WOULDN’T YOU LET ME Ó 2002 Dennis Crossland Verse 1 There's no use in tryin' to explain what did or didn't go wrong or right It wouldn't do any good to lay any blame we're two ships passing in the night Here I am once again on the shore feet firmly planted in shifting sand I've been here so many times before it's getting easier to stand Chorus Goodbye my love goodbye I won't say "don't forget me" I didn't know you, didn't I try …….Or wouldn't you let me Verse 2 We were just two souls meeting while adrift on this sea of life Our time was brief and fleeting like two ships passing in the night Now the tide is a risin' wind whips 'round my thoughts It seems to be harmonizin' with a melody I've caught Chorus Bridge It could have been a love song, but it's just me reminisin' Just me and the wind singing Chorus
