Lyrics:

When I saw you on the street, I almost turned away
When you stared in disbelief because I smiled and waved
Oh, the years have turned my bitterness into a sad regret
And it's good to finally talk to you and lay our past to rest

'Cause I have changed and you have changed, and all is forgiven now
And a long and silent last embrace shows our respect somehow
But it's okay to cry a little, I know where it comes from
These tears of sadness and relief when love dies in your arms

You were once my deepest pain, but you were once my friend
And a part of me was holding on 'til I saw you again
I couldn't bear to see it end with rage and jealousy
A feeling once so beautiful should die with dignity

And I have changed and you have changed, and all is forgiven now
And a long and silent last embrace shows our respect somehow
But it's okay to cry a little, I know where it comes from
These tears of sadness and relief when love dies in your arms
