The Man That Got Away – Rufus WainwrightBy The night is bitter, the stars have lost their glitterThe winds grow colder, suddenly you’re olderAnd all because of the man that got awayNo more his eager call, the writings on the wallThe dreams you’ve dreamed have all gone astrayThe man that won you has run off and undone youThat great beginning has seen a final inningDon’t know what happened, it’s all a crazy gameNo more that all-time thrill, for you’ve been through the millAnd never a new love will be the sameGood riddance, goodbyeEvery trick of his you’re on toBut fools will be fools, and where’s he gone to?The road gets rougher, it’s lonelier and tougherWith hope you’ll burn up, tomorrow he might turn upThere’s just no letup, the livelong night and dayEver since this world began, there is nothing sadder thanA one-man woman, looking for the man that got awayThe man that got away www.pillowlyrics.com419786497975 88k 20
