Your face reveals a love you think is real a love that used to be and still is mine

Her lips conceal the one love that they feel

Though she's with you her heart's just marking time

In the dark of the night when you're holding her tight

Do you know she's pretending it's me

When she closes her eyes do you whether realize

She's marking time with you but loving me

[ steel ]

Just a matter of time till once again she's mine

Then no longer she'll have to pretend

Though you may love her so there's one thing you should know

She's just marking time till I come back again

In the dark of the night...
