He came on like the night when he held on tight
And the world was right when he made love to me
We were free
He moved in like a friend
Started loving me
And I thought I'd found my heaven in his arms
But the morning when I woke up
I was here and he was gone
Now I was hanging on
Maybe you can tell me
CHORUS:
How could love so right
turn out to be so wrong, oh my darling
How could love so right
Turn out to be, so wrong
And, why did he go when I needed him close to me
And the perfect story ended at the start
I thought you came forever but you came to break my heart
'Cos I was hanging on, on the chance that you'll come back to me
CHORUS
I could take it in my stride
Start living for the moment
Maybe half the things we sought were never there
Since we opened up our eyes and bring it down to size
It isn't really fair
