You don't look back because you know

your hands are clean
 G          F
You make believe
           C               D

Oh, Eliza
You must begin again
And all the roads that you have

I was your lover
But I thought I was your friend
I loved you but I thought I was your friend

Oh, sweet lady
Stand beside the sea
Maybe you will find a little time to think of me
Won't you please remember
What I tried so hard to be?
Yeah, remember what I tried so hard to be

You been gone too long
