The night is bitter
The stars have lost their glitter
The wind grows colder
And suddenly you´re older
And all because of the man that got away

No more is he the cause, oh
The writing´s on the wall
Oh but dreams, yeah dreams
Have all gone astray

The man that won you
Has gone off and undone you
The great beginning
Has seen it´s final inning
Don´t know what happened
It´s all a crazy game

No more, no more of that ole time thrill
Oh, honey you been through the mill
And never will a new love will be the same

Good riddance, oh goodbye
Every, every prickle is your own to
But fools will be fools
And where´s he gone to

The road gets rougher
It´s lonelier and it´s tougher
We hope you run up
Tomorrow, tomorrow may he may turn up

There´s just no letter
The live long night and day
Ever since this world began, oh
There ain´t nothing sadder than
A one man woman crying for
The man that got away
