Our romance won't end on a sorrowful note Though by tomorrow you're gone The song is ending But as the song writer wrote the melody goes on They may take you from me, I'll miss your fun caress But though they take you from me, I'll still posses
The way you wear your hat, The way you sip your tea, The mem'ry of all that -- No, no! They can't take that away from me! The way your smile just beams, The way you sing off key, The way you haunt my dreams -- No, no! They can't take that away from me!
We can never, never meet again On the bumpy road to love, Still I'll always, always keep The mem'ry of --
The way you hold your knife, The way we danced 'til three. The way you changed my life -- No, no! They can't take that away from me! No! They can't take that away from me!
We can never, never meet again On the bumpy road to love, Still I'll always, always keep The mem'ry of --
The way you hold your knife, The way we danced 'til three. The way you changed my life -- No, no! They can't take that away from me! No! They can't take that away from me!
You're browsing in a second hand book store And you see him in non-fiction V-Y He looks up from World War Two And then you catch him, catch him, catch him in his eye
So you quickly turn away a wishful stare And take a sudden interest in your shoes If you only had the courage But you don't, and he turns and leaves And you both loose
And you think about the people that you never get to love Its not as if you even had the chance So many worth a second life but rarely do you get a second glance Until fate cuts in on your dance
And you'll see him on a train that you just missed At a bus stop where your bus will never stop Or in a passing Buick when you've been pulled over by a traffic cop
Or you'll share an elevator, just you two And rise in solemn silence to your floor Like the fool you are, you get off And he leaves your life behind a closing door
And you think about the people that you never get to love That poem you intended to begin The saddest that anyone has ever said are "Lord what might have been" But no one ever said you get to win
Still you'll never going to miss what you don't know And you don't know who you'll meet at half past 3 It could be a total stranger who looks just a little bit like me
One of the people that you never get to love One of the people that you never get to love The People That You Never Get To Looooooooove
