Because I knew this won't last a lifetime I had myself under control when I said goodbye I said “thanks, not another man Ever give what you can give me Just go away and don't look back" This is how it had to be, don't ask why If this takes too long, it will become a routine Dried flower loses its color ref.: For three summers you were my love Not an hour without you for three summers The best party can never last long I have no regrets, sorrows or remorse Received a narrow ring in Paris A gold band from yet another trip A card with "I love you" Some souvenirs, a single letter It passed, like so many things I have no regrets, I got my share It was too good to last long Our house is now available for rent again The best party can never last long I have no regrets, sorrows or remorse
