Two people who once were lovers
Know, they don’t have a chance
They both know right now
They’ll never share the dance
Though the love they feel for each other
Will never reach an end
They must now try to live
As being each others friend
He loves her so dearly
You know she loves him to
But in their hearts they both know
This is the thing to do
She has spent so many years
Living by herself
He has spent a lifetime
Always looking for someone else
Most people would agree
They are the perfect pair
You can tell by their laughter
Just how much they care
When they are not together
Their sad beyond compare
But when they do get together
You’ll never see despair
Their love is so very unique
Yet tragic in a way
They live to be with each other
They’ll probably never get their day
They would love to stay together
Until their lives are done
They know for each other
That they are the one
Every night parting time
Always rolls around
He always leaves her standing there
As her tears fall to the ground
Just once she’d like to hear him say
That he’s going to stay
Just once she'd like to see him
Stay with her for the entire day
But in her heart she knows
That’s a dream that won’t come true
That’s why she had to tell him
That today their love was through
