I’ve loved some other women in my past,
And yet the love they offered couldn’t last.
Now when I think about the love they gave,
It makes me sad,
Because the sweet love they once gave
Has all turned bad.
The love I sought with them has turned out wrong.
They promised love which didn’t last for long.
And now I’ve turned to you in hopes that you
Will make things right
By holding me here in your arms
All through the night.
Yes the sweet love they once gave
Has all turned bad,
And the memories of their love
Makes me sad,
And now I hope that you can find
A way to make me smile,
And chase their memories away,
Though it’s only for a while.
