Over My Shoulder by Mike and The Mechanics

Looking back over my shoulder
I can see that look in your eye
I never dreamed it could be over
I never (1)____________ to say goodbye
Looking back over my shoulder
With an aching deep in my heart
I wish (2)________ we were starting over
Oh instead of drifting so far apart

Everybody told me you were leaving
Funny I should be last to know
Baby please tell me (3)________ I'm dreaming
I just (4)__________ want to let you go
Looking back over my shoulder
I can see that look in your eyes
Turning my heart over and over
I never wanted to say goodbye

I don't mind everybody laughing
But it's enough to (5)________ a grown man cry
Cos I can fell you slipping through my fingers
I don't (6)________ know the reason why

Every day It's a losing battle just to smile
And (7)________ my head up high
Could it be (8)________ we belong together
Baby won't you give me one more try

On more try...
Looking back (9)________ my shoulder
I can see that look in your eye
I never dreamed it could be over
I never wanted to say goodbye
Looking back over my shoulder
(Oh with an aching feeling inside
Cutting me up, deeper and deeper
Fills me with a sadness that I can't hide
Looking back...)
