English term or phrase:

Vers 1- If love was a bird then we wouldn`t have wings- I love was the sky we`d be blue – If love was a choir, U and I could never sing- `Cause love isn`t for me and U – If love was an Oscar, U and I could never win-`Cause we could never act out our parts- If love is the Bible, then we are lost in sin- Because it`s not in our hesrts-
Chorus- So why don`t U go your way- And I´ll go mine – Live your live , and I`ll live mine- Baby you`ll do well , and I´ll be fine- `Cause we`er better off- Separated-
Vers 2- If love was a fire , then we have lost the spark-Love never felt so cold- If love was a light , then weér lost in the dark- Left with no one to hold-If love was a sport, we`er not on the same team- And U and I are destined to lose- If love was an ocean, then we are just a stream- `Cause love isn´t for me and U –
Chorus-Bridge- Girl I know , we had some good times – It´s sad but now, we gotta say goodbye- Girl U know , I love U – I can`t deny- Can´t say we didn´t try to make it worke for U and I – I know it hurts so much but it`s best for us- Somewehre along this winding road we lost the trust – So I´ll walk away so U don´t have to see me cry- It´s killing me so , why don`t U go-
Chorus(out)

Schönes Lied´!!

von wem ist das? Bruce Springstreen oder Chris Rea?
Leider 'n bißchen traurig:
Tja. so kann's gehen, man liebt sich, man hat's versucht, aber es geht halt nicht.(schnief). ;-)

Viele Grüße
