"Buenos Aires" lyrics - SHARON CORR

When you left me by the river, I watched the boats go by*
When I saw you turn and walk away, I tried hard not to cry
Now I won't let it go
'Cos I need you to know
That I wanted you like you wanted me
And now we'll never know
And for a moment then we were nearly there
I let it go
I wanted you to break away
Just to leave it all behind
But you didn't know how to be that brave
To follow your own mind
Now I won't let it go
'Cos I need you to know
That I wanted you like you wanted me
And now we'll never know
And for a moment then we were nearly there
I let it go
And if I had it all to do again
Then I would surely go
And as you changed my mind
On that fateful day
I'd be yours
Take me to Buenos Aires
Take me to Buenos Aires
That I wanted you like you wanted me
And now we'll never know
And for a moment then we were nearly there
I let it go
