[ti:The Man That Got Away]
[ar:Donna Burke]
[al:Donna Burke with the David Silverman Quartet]
[00:07.44] The night is bitter, the stars have lost their glitter
[00:14.84] The winds grow colder, suddenly you're older
[00:22.16] And all because of the man that got away
[00:36.18] No more his eager call, the writing's on the wall
[00:50.47] The dreams you've dreamed have all gone astray
[01:06.39] The man that won you has run off and undone you
[01:14.16] That great beginning has seen a final inning
[01:21.47] Don't know what happened, it's all a crazy game
[01:34.97] No more that all-time thrill, for you've been through the mill
[01:50.52] And never a new love will be the same
[02:03.53] Good riddance, goodbye
[02:08.99] Every trick of his you're on to
[02:18.05] But fools will be fools, and where's he gone to?
[02:34.88] The road gets rougher, it's lonelier and tougher
[02:43.64] With hope you'll burn up, tomorrow he might turn up
[02:51.67] There's just no letup, the livelong night and day
[03:04.99] Ever since this world began, there is nothing sadder than
[03:20.41] A one-man woman, looking for the man that got away
[03:36.70] The man that got away
