Who knew she would leave me
And every night I’d be on my own
Waiting for new love to begin?
But hope cannot deceive me,
I’ll always be alone
Who can change this plight I’m in?

We were destined to be lovers
I could tell my her kiss
And all the passion there within
I knew there’d be no other
So sure was I of this
Now I fight this deep chagrin
Every night’s a might have been

I’ve been in both hemispheres
Searching here and there
Hoping to break this curse
I’ve spent all these years
Travelling everywhere
But time only makes things worse
Time only makes things worse.

What future now awaits me
What destiny’s in store?’
This is a game I can’t win
I’m certain now my fate’s to be
That I will love no more
Though I’ll survive through thick and thin
My ev’ry night’s a might have been
My ev’ry night’s a might have been.
