I had a dream of us together 

In a world where we knew what was true 

Oh Patti don't lead the life that I left you with 

It's been such a long time and I know 



We tried together to discover 

Why we failed the test of our time 

Oh Patti don't lead the life that they made for you 

I'll be gone a long while and you'll know 



And don't feel sorry for loverboy 

You know he wants the world to love him, then he goes and spoils it all 

Don't feel sorry for loverboy 

He wants the world to love him, then he goes and spoils it all for love 



There's no one out here you can listen to 

And certainly never yourself (ooh) 

Oh Patti don't lead the life that I left you with 

Listen to the cars call in the rain 



I got so tired of concluding 

That there's nothing for us to conclude (ooh) 

Oh Patti don't look for certainty in your life 

I've gone where a lost cause can be found 



And don't feel sorry for loverboy 

You know he wants the world to love him, then he goes and spoils it all 

Don't feel sorry for loverboy 

He wants the world to love him, then he goes and spoils it all for love 



Oh for love, little girl 

Oh for love, little girl 

(For love) 



Don't feel sorry for loverboy 

You know he wants the world to love him, then he goes and spoils it all 

Don't feel sorry for loverboy 

He wants the world to love him 



(For love) 

Don't feel sorry for loverboy 

He wants the world to love him 



Oh and don't feel sorry for loverboy 

He wants the world to love him, then he goes and spoils it all 

Don't feel sorry for loverboy 

He wants the world to love him, then he goes and spoils it all for love
