It Would Be You

It Took Us All Night Long To Say Goodbye

(Bob McDill/Wayland Holyfield)

It only took a minute for us to finally end it

I guess we’d seen it comin' for some time

And it only took one hour to sit and talk it over

But it took us all night long to say goodbye

Now the flame is gone I know

And the ashes have grown cold

And the love we had we’ll never have again

But there’s one ember left that must have never died

'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye

Too many tears have fallen, too many dreams were broken

And holdin' on would be a waste of time

But sometimes I know I’ll wonder if it was really over

'Cause it took us all night to say goodbye

Now the flame is gone I know

And the ashes have grown cold

And the love we had we’ll never have again

But there’s one ember left that must have never died

'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye

There’s one ember left that must have never died

'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye
