lyrics

I thought about you darlin'
At some couple's wedding day
The vows were at the altar
But my mind was far away
And in my daydream movie
I bask in bygone beauty
You were mine for then
The bride and groom look happy
The padre kinda sappy
When he said to them
Their love ever was to be
Never was to end

Since the time you left me
Others went and came
I saw our same old places
But they never looked the same
Far too proud to pine ya
Sometimes I'd Aude Lang Sine ya
With comfort of my friends
And many times I'd see them
To raise the glass of freedom
Did not worry then
If the love that never was to be
Ever was to end

I saw you at a station
Where you hugged me for so long
You told me how you missed me
And you never should've gone
We made love through the nighttime
Til the golden morning broke
And how my tears were falling
That moment I awoke

That dream is gonna find me
And cruelly re-remind me
Sometimes I just pretend
I hoped I might be spared some
But here I am at square one
To wonder once again
If the love that never was to be
Ever was to end

That dream is gonna find me
And cruelly re-remind me
Sometimes I just pretend
I hoped I might be spared some
But here I am at square one
To wonder once again
If this love that never was to be
Ever was to end
If the love that never was to be
Ever was to end
