When I met you I knew I couldn't keep you

And nothin' I could do would make you stay

But, my darlin', I'm not bitter

Over things that just can't be

For with you I lived a lifetime in a day



I'll remember every tender word you spoke, dear

Each tender touch, each time you looked my way

And the secrets that we shared will be my secret

For with you I lived a lifetime in a day



I'm not sorry that I knew your kind of love

If I've sinned, then the price I'll gladly pay

To my lonely life you brought the sunshine

For with you I lived a lifetime in a day



I'm not sorry that I knew your kind of love

If I've sinned, then the price I'll gladly pay

To my lonely life you brought the sunshine

For with you I lived a lifetime in a day
