|
She told me her story, hoped |
|
I would understand |
|
And I listened closely, as anybody can |
|
But there's a distant look that's in her eyes |
|
And as the nights grow longer, alone in bed she cries |
|
My baby met a man on her first date |
|
He stole her heart an' sealed her fate |
|
And she thought she'd found a friend for life |
|
He wanted her but not to be a wife * |
|
La la li, la la li |
|
A fool for love never wonders why |
|
La la li, la la li |
|
She hangs on in but it's just another goodbye ** (Now) every day is like another day |
|
She lets it all drift on away |
|
An' every man is like another man |
|
They come and go but she never can |
|
And from sixteen to thirty-two |
|
She lost her loves and her good looks too |
|
It's so sad to see at first hand |
|
From a teenage beauty to a one night stand * |
|
Repeat ** |
|
Repeat twice [INSTRUMENTAL] ** |
|
Repeat and fade |
