How can p eople st and such tears
On w hat's already been done
And n ow with t ime just o ne step b ehind u s
We'v e so far ye t to r un
But there w ill b e no more
Di sappointed h eartaches left for me
My pr ize is almo st won
But those s ongs of love won't me an the s ame
As w hen we'd first beg un
I wan b orn a fo ol for tre asure
But it was h idden in the rough
Ah, but w hen the g old was i n my h and
You know I trie d for ha rder s tuff
So, a ll h urt a nd down,
You k now I t ook my love to town
Hoping someone,
Some body would jus t call my bluff
But those s ongs of love won't mean the s ame
As w hen we'd first beg un
You know the world and a ll of its pl easures
I guess they t empted me far too young
And I know I 've been w rong in s o many s ongs
That I must just have be en right in o ne
Oh w hat a p rice t o pay

Ju st for w inning this way
Now t hose songs of l ove won't m ean the s ame
As w hen we'd first beg un
As w hen we'd first begun
