Verse 1:
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 Fixit Street
Make a left at the cornerstone
There'll be a house on the alleyway
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 it go
Is it over? Is it over?
All over? All over?
I let a good girl get away
Chorus:
How could I ever let her get away?
Today is not a happy day
So many words that I have 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've been our anniversary
I'll do anything to have you right here in my arms
Verse 2:
Remember when we talked about
All the things that we planned to do
Our wedding day, a house in the valley
Maybe a kid or two
We could've had it all babe
But somehow it all fell apart
I agree to take the blame
See I'm feeling so ashamed
I never should've lied
I'll give anything
To see your pretty face again
To hold you, to be with you
Heaven give me one more chance
(Chorus)
If it only were possible
For me to turn back the hands of time
I'd do anything, I'd give everything
Just to make her mine
I can't live without your love, babe
I can't go on another day
Where did she go?
I've gotta know
I let a good girl get away, get away, get away
(Chorus)
I'll give anything
To see your pretty face again
To hold you, to be with you (touch you)
Heaven gimme one more chance
How could I ever let her get away (come see about me)
Today is not a happy day
So many words that I have to say
(so many words, so many things)
Baby I miss you and I need your love
(send a message in a bottle baby)
