I call her up at midnight
say I'm feeling scared
boy you've got to let it go
I tell her what we've got is so right
can it last out there
in this world you never know
then I close my eyes and I wait
imagining what she might say
here comes your goodbye
and then she says
she believes in dreaming
and then she says
she talks to the stars
and then she says
she can see forever
from where we are
I see myself in her eyes
and my mind plays games
what if this all comes apart
everyone around me turning
promises to pain
history loves a broken heart
then I see a smile on her face
and I wonder how long will it stay
true romance has died

Chorus]
then I think of all the lonely people
all thinking about
why they're the ones that live without
then I see a smile on her face
and I wonder how long will it stay
true romance has died

Chorus]
