Elizabeth Lyrics

When I look back at all my yesterdays

And how many of those I threw away

When I sit and think of what might have been

It stirs up those old feelings again

But I've lived to learn that I was a fool

My biggest regret is walking away from you

Oh, Elizabeth

I never should have said,

Goodbye the way I did

That night has been living in my soul

Since the day I let you go

Oh, oh, Elizabeth

I have so much regret

Your crying eyes I just can't forget

They will haunt me until my death

Oh, oh, Elizabeth

Back then, I wanted more freedom in my life

And I blamed you for wanting to be a good wife

I didn't want to take that next step with you

I still wanted to runaway with my youth

But after twenty years of sowing those oats, I see

I should have never set you free

Oh, Elizabeth

I never should have said,

Goodbye the way I did

That night has been living in my soul

Since the day I let you go

Oh, oh, Elizabeth

I have so much regret

Your crying eyes I just can't forget

They will haunt me until my death

Oh, oh, Elizabeth

Since those days, I've seen you around a time or two

Every time we talked, I knew our memories had died for you

You found your someone and moved on from me

While I kept chasing what I thought would make me happy

But as time passed our memories grew strong

Until it hit me how I was so wrong

Oh, Elizabeth

I never should have said,

Goodbye the way I did

That night has been living in my soul

Since the day I let you go

Oh, oh, Elizabeth

I have so much regret

Your crying eyes I just can't forget

They will haunt me until my death

Oh, oh, Elizabeth

Oh, oh, Elizabeth

Your crying eyes I just can't forget…

Oh, oh, ohhhhhh, Elizabeth
