Next Time I Love

Next Time I Love - Linda Eder

It's over now

You walk away

After goodbye there's nothing left to say

How could I miss by so much

Did I finally lose my touch

Or simply lose my way

I guess it's true

You live and learn

Take one last look and watch

Your bridges burn

When did love leave me behind

Did I lose what you seldom find

Or simply lose my turn

Next time I love

Won't be too soon

Next time I fall

I'll fall beneath a kinder moon

And should that moon turn cold

And fade away

I'll feel the chill

But still I'll stay

Next time I love

Next time I dance

Next time I fall will these old feelings

Stand a change

This lonely heart and I we'll both survive

For I'll be whole and so alive

Next time I love

A little prayer

Some compromise

A little time to grow a little wise

And should he ask me for more

Will I foolishly close the door

Or simply close my eyes

Next time I love

Won't be too soon

Next time I fall I'll fall beneath

A kinder moon

And should that moon turn

Cold and fade away

I will hold on and find a way

Next time I love

Next time I dance

Next time I fall will these old feelings

Stand a chance

This lonely heart and I we'll both survive

For I'll be whole and so alive

Next time I love
