She's there just sitting at the table
Thinking out that things won't be the same
And wouldn't you like to go with me
And she answered "no" to me
But I guess I learned my lesson much too soon
I never thought she'd leave me here forever
But who knows just what the future brings
And wouldn't you like to go with me
And she answered "no" to me
But I guess I learned my lesson much too soon
Take away this never ending sorrow
Take this lonely feeling from my soul
If only I knew what things bring tomorrow
She'd be sitting here beside me
And my heart would dimly go
I hope to make a change now for the better
Never letting fate control my soul
And I'm hoping that my prayers will see
The day that she'll come back to me
But I guess I learned my lesson much too soon
Yes, I guess I learned my lesson much too soon.
