Hot summer night
Sparkling fire, full moonlight
I was lonely and you were there
Did I ever tell you I really cared?
Drifters, lonesome lovers
leaving laughter in the air
Did I ever tell you I really loved you
Did you ever care?
Why did it have to end
It was a good time while it lasted
But now it's gone.
I cry out
at the World that took you from me
Looks like desert as far as I can see
How could I know what you never felt for me
Now the tears are gone and my eyes can't see.
Why did it have to end?
I dream in rhymes but I never dream of you
I take my time but I never stop to stare
Though it's true that I never loved you
You never really cared.
I cry out
at the World that took you from me
Looks like desert as far as I can see
How could I know what you never felt for me
Now the tears are gone and my eyes can't see.
Why did it have to end
We had a good time while it lasted
But now it's gone.
