I remember all my life

Raining down as cold as ice

A shadow of a man

A face through a window

Crying in the night

The night goes into



Morning, just another day

Happy people pass my way

Looking in their eyes

I see a memory

I never realized

How happy you made me, oh Mandy



Well you came and you gave without taking

And I sent you away, oh Mandy

And you kissed me and stopped me from shaking

And I need you today, oh Mandy



I'm standing on the edge of time

Walked away when love was mine

Caught up in a world of uphill climbing

The tears are in my eyes

And nothing is rhyming, oh Mandy



Well you came and you gave without taking

And I sent you away, oh Mandy

And you kissed me and stopped me from shaking

And I need you today, oh Mandy



Yesterday's a dream

Now I face the morning

Crying on the breeze

The pain is calling, oh Mandy



Well you came and you gave without taking

And I sent you away, oh Mandy

And you kissed me and stopped me from shaking

And I need you today, oh Mandy



Well you came and you gave without taking

And I sent you away, oh Mandy

And you kissed me and stopped me from shaking

And I need you today, oh Mandy
