Carly,

I don't know if this is the song you are looking for, but it is an old favorite written by B. W. Stevenson (who wrote "My Maria" made famous by Three Dog Night)

If I don't see you before I go,
Remember what you've seen and what you know.
Sunshine, you will be on my mind eternally,
Just you remember you and I'll remember me.

CHO: And I want to be on my own,
It's a long way home,
And I feel like a baby boy,
Just bein' born.

If you find your true love once again,
Please, don't do the same damn thing to him.
Even when I's with you, I felt so all alone.
So, I'd soon as do without you and be on my own. CHO:

A captive of your heart I guess I was,
You gave no reason stoppin' lovin' me, "Just because."
You dragged yourself right down, you could not hear a sound,
Just the tappin' of your tear drops, on the ground. CHO:

BRIDGE:

Get out of your shell, these things don't treat you well.
You're the broken part of a living fairy tale.

Enjoy,

Roger in Baltimore
