What am I bid for this beautiful love? A love long ago that was mine What will you give for this genuine dream? A dream that has faded with time Once, I believed she was safe in my heart Though I valued her love it was wrong from the start So, what am I bid for this beautiful love that just couldn't be? What am I bid for this pure work of art that's no good to me? Surely, there's someone to take her away and let me be free I tried many times, but I know that I can't carry on All that I want for this beautiful love Is freedom to find peace of mind Though there were times when I loved her so much In faith, I was totally blind What can you do when your dreams fall apart? How can you fight what you feel in your heart? So, what am I bid for this beautiful love that just couldn't be? What am I bid for this pure work of art, that's no good to me? Surely there's someone to take her away and let me be free I tried many times but I know that I can't carry on So, what am I bid for this beautiful love that just couldn't be? What am I bid for this pure work of art, that's no good to me? Surely there's someone to take her away and let me be free I tried many times but I know that I can't carry on My love is going, going, gone
