Back at the start |
|
It was all hearts and flowers |
|
Candlelight rendezvous |
|
That lasted for hours |
|
But since he's gone |
|
You toss and turn until dawn |
|
Nobody ever told you |
|
It would feel like this when |
|
Each tender dream |
|
Just seems to fade like dew does |
|
Your arms keep reaching |
|
For the lover man who was |
|
Faithless and mean |
|
But now he's gone from the scene |
|
They oughta write a song about that |
|
About the way it hurts when you realize |
|
All those promises were false |
|
About the lonely sound when the music dies |
|
Like a broken waltz |
|
If there were prizes |
|
For those sighs of regret |
|
You'd be the envy |
|
Of the "oh, woe is me" set |
|
Romance is through |
|
It's just the piper and you |
|
They oughta write a song about that |
|
Romance is through |
|
It's just the piper and you |
|
Oh, they ought to write a song about that |
|
Somebody somewhere |
|
Oughta write a song about that |
