I'm back again in this town to find a girl that I used to know

I bumped into a friend of mine and she told me where to go

She said "go right down to 56th street,

Make a left at the corner store,

There will be a house on the alley way"

I hope she didn't move away

I pray she's still around

But somebody came to the door that I didn't know

And I knew I had to let her go

Is it over? All over?

I let a good girl get away



1~ How could I ever let her get away

Today is not a happy day

So many words that I had to say

Baby I miss you and I need your love

How could I ever let her get away

Today is not a happy day

It could have been our anniversary

I'll do anything to have you right here in my arms



Remember when we talked about

All the things that we planned to do

Our wedding day, a house in the valley,

And maybe a kid or two

We could have had it all, but somehow it all fell apart

I agree to take the blame, see I'm feeling so ashamed

I never should have lied

I'll give anything to see your pretty face again

To hold you, to be with you, heaven give me one more chance



~Repeat 1~



If only it were possible for me to turn back the hands of time

I'd do anything, I'll give anything just to make her mine

I can't live without your lovin baby, I can't go on another day

Where did she go? I gotta know

I let a good girl get away, get away, get away



~Repeat 1
