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 writing's 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 inning
Don't know what happened, it's all a crazy game
No more that all-time thrill, for you've been through the mill 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 let up, the live-long 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 man that got away
