It Took Us All Night Long To Say Goodbye Lyrics - It Would Be You - Gary Allan

It only took a minute for us to finally end it 

I guess we'd seen it comin' for some time 

And it only took one hour to sit and talk it over 

But it took us all night long to say goodbye 

Now the flame is gone I know 

And the ashes have grown cold 

And the love we had we'll never have again 

But there's one ember left that must have never died 

'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye 

Too many tears have fallen, too many dreams were broken 

And holdin' on would be a waste of time 

But sometimes I know I'll wonder if it was really over 

'Cause it took us all night to say goodbye 

Now the flame is gone I know 

And the ashes have grown cold 

And the love we had we'll never have again 

But there's one ember left that must have never died 

'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye
