The Man That Got Away

Lyrics

The night is bitter
 The stars have lost their glitter
 The winds grow colder
 And suddenly you're older
 And all because of
 The man that got away
 No more his eager call
 The writings on the wall
 The dreams you dreamed have all
 Gone astray
 The man that won you
 Has run off and undone you
 That great beginning
 Has seen the final ending
 Don't know what happened
 It's all a crazy game
 No more that all-time thrill
 For you've been through the mill
 And never a new love will
 Be the same
 Good riddance, goodbye
 Every trick of his you're on to
 But fools will be fools and where's he gone to?
 The road gets rougher
 It's lonelier and tougher
 With hope you burn up
 Tomorrow he may turn up
 There's just no letup
 The livelong night and day
 Ever since this world began
 There is nothing sadder than
 A one-man woman
 Looking for the man that got away
 ♪
 The road gets rougher
 It's lonelier and tougher
 With hope you burn up
 Tomorrow he may turn up
 There's just no letup
 The livelong night and day
 Ever since this world began
 There is nothing sadder than
 A one-man woman
 Looking for the man
 The man that got away
 The man that got away
