Lyrics

If I ever see you again,
I?m gonna tell you how it?s been
Since your love turned cold on me.

The heart I thought was my own
Was just a temporary loan,
I should have known what the ending would be.

When you told me you loved me,
Oh, how the moon shown bright.
Since you left there?s only darkness in my night.

How I wish I?d never met you,
How I pray that I?ll forget you
If I never, ever see you again.

(Baby, that?ll be too soon.)
