I know a couple, she sits in a rocking chair Working puzzles, he watches TV upstairs
She's got a secret she has never let out A man she thinks he never knew about
She hasn't seen him in thirty years The mention of his name doesn't bring on tears
If you ask her, are there any regrets She'll tell you no, but she never forgets
It was the kind of love you never recover from Even though she found another one to
take his place She never will escape the truth
At times like this, when the moon is bright When the air is foggy like it is tonight
She'll think about what might have been If she had just held on to him
I know a man who has done it all He's sailed the oceans, climbed the mountains
of Nepal He lives high up on the avenue
With a beautiful wife, lovely children too But there's a woman he still dreams about
Certain things he's learned to live without If you ask him, are there any regrets
He'll tell you no, but he never forgets It was the kind of love you never recover
from Even though he found another one to take
her place He never will escape the truth
At times like this, when the moon is bright When the air is foggy like it is tonight
He'll think about what might have been If he had not let her slip away from him
I read about a woman who said she never regretted Anything she'd ever done
Such arrogant words always seem to be spoken by those who then die young
So here am I, looking at you What tell me, what are we gonna do
Am I destined to be a regret Are you that one I'll never forget
Years from now, will we curse the day You let me let you walk away
Isn't this too dear a price to pay For the freedom of going separate ways
This is the kind of love you never recover from
Don't tell me that I'm gonna find another one to take your place
I never will escape the truth
At times like this, when the moon is bright When the air is foggy like it is tonight
I'll think how sweet life could be If you would stay with me, oh stay with me
This is the kind of love you never recover from
Don't tell me that I'm gonna find another one to take your place
Try to face the truth
Let me hold you close tonight The fog is lifted and the moon is so bright
Think how sweet life could be If you would stay with me, oh stay with me
This is the kind of love you never recover from
This is the kind of love you never recover from
