The Great Divide - Anne Murray

How can two people

Who shared all their secrets

Have nothing left to say

How can two lovers

Who turned to each other

Suddenly just turn away

And how can two hearts

That once beat together

Be so still tonight

Standing at the edge of goodbye

Here at the great devide

And where does love go

Does it drift with the snow?

Or lie cold in the ground

How did forever turn into never

And leave without even a sound

Once we moved mountains

That stood in our way

Now, we don’t even try

Standing at the edge of goodbye

Here at the great devide

I know it’s over

But I’m not over it yet

Now that I’ve learned how to say goodbye

When will I learn to forget

The mem’ries begin the moment love ends

Is that all we leave behind

Standing at the edge of goodbye

Here at the great devide

Here at the great divide
