Lyrics The Great Divide - Anne Murray

The Great Divide

How can two people
Who shared all their secrets
Have nothing left to say
How can two lovers
Who turned to each other
Suddenly just turn away
And how can two hearts
That once beat together
Be so still tonight
Standing at the edge of goodbye
Here at the great devide
And where does love go
Does it drift with the snow?
Or lie cold in the ground
How did forever turn into never
And leave without even a sound
Once we moved mountains
That stood in our way
Now, we don’t even try
Standing at the edge of goodbye
Here at the great devide
I know it’s over
But I’m not over it yet
Now that I’ve learned how to say goodbye
When will I learn to forget
The mem’ries begin the moment love ends
Is that all we leave behind
Standing at the edge of goodbye
Here at the great devide
Here at the great divide
