I hope you're happy with your new love
I hope that she brings you joy into your world
But live on, baby
Time's gonna prove who I was
The best thing you ever had
Now you know that I was
Now I don't hold
Don't hold nothing against you
Even though you destroyed my mind
And ripped my whole life too
Oh, oh, oh, oh

But live on, baby
Time's gonna prove who I was
The best thing you ever had
Yes, I was
Yes, I was
Now how many tears
Did you cause to fall?
Oh, I don't believe
I don't believe
You got no heart at all
Got no heart at all
And how many hearts
Must be broken in two
Before your conscience
Starts to work it on you
Starts to work it on you
Oh, I suffer
I suffer for so long
I believe that you get your pleasure
Out of doing me wrong
But live on, baby
Time's gonna prove who I was
The best thing you ever had
Yes, I was
Yes, I was
Yes, I was
You made me suffer
Oh, oh, oh
You made me cry
Oh, oh, oh
But live on, baby
Got to live on, baby
Live on, baby
Got to live on, baby
Live on, baby
I ain't worried
Time's gonna prove who I was
The best thing you ever had
Yes, I was
Yes, I was
You made me suffer
Oh, oh, oh
Baby, ever
You made me cry
Oh, oh, oh
You made me cry

Baby, live on, baby
Baby, live on
