  • This is the way you left me
    I'm not pretending
    No hope, no love, no glory
    No happy ending
    This is the way that we love
    Like it's forever
    Then live the rest of our life
    But not together

    Wake up in the morning, stumble on my life
    Can't get no love without sacrifice
    If anything should happen, I'd guess I wish you well
    Mm, a little bit of heaven, but a little bit of hell

    This is the hardest story
    That I have ever told
    No hope, or love, or glory
    Happy endings gone forever more

    I feel as if I'm wasted
    And I wasted everyday

    This is the way you left me
    I'm not pretending
    No hope, no love, no glory
    No happy ending
    This is the way that we love
    Like it's forever
    Then live the rest of our life
    But not together

    Two o'clock in the morning, something's on my mind
    Can't get no rest, keep walkin' around
    If I pretend that nothin' ever went wrong
    I can get to my sleep
    I can think that we just carried on

    This is the hardest story
    That I have ever told
    No hope, or love, or glory
    Happy endings gone forever more

    I feel as if I'm wasted
    And I wasted everyday

    This is the way you left me
    I'm not pretending
    No hope, no love, no glory
    No happy ending
    This is the way that we love
    Like it's forever
    Then live the rest of our life
    But not together

    Little bit of love
    Little bit of love
    Little bit of love
    Little bit of love
    Little bit of love
    Little bit of love
    There ain't a better love
    Little bit of love
    Need to be love, love

    I feel as if I'm wasted
    And I wasted everyday, hey, hey, hey

    This is the way you left me
    I'm not pretending
    No hope, no love, no glory
    No happy ending
    This is the way that we love
    Like it's forever
    To live the rest of our life
    But not together

    This is the way you left me
    I'm not pretending
    No hope, no love, no glory
    No happy ending
    This is the way that we love
    Like it's forever
    To live the rest of our life
    But not together

    This is the way you left me
    I'm not pretending
    No hope, no love, no glory

  • Kate from Wollongong, AustraliaA few years ago, one of my classmates at school died (aged 13) and this song was played at her funeral. I still cry every time I hear it. Lovely song, though.
  • Kami from New York City, NyI just watched a video on youtube and it made me cry. If you are a harry potter fan, you will really feel bad for snape. http://youtube.com/watch?v=uvC-jzHTA2U
  • Kami from New York City, NyI love this song. I don't know why. The tune is relly relaxing and cool
