This room of jaded overtones
                I said come see me if you'd like
                 And when you took me for a ride
               You took away about all I'd assumed
                 And when I said it's not to be
                  It made a lot of sense to me
                   And it only makes more now
             That's not to say that it's all changed
               Sometimes the feelings are the same
                  But I guess we'll never know

                    A promise is no guarantee
             What's said is meant to follow through
                 As much as you had hoped to see
                These chances I would never take
            Until I'd know how much we'd had at stake
                 And when I said it's not to be
                  It made a lot of sense to me
                   And it only makes more now
             That's not to say that it's all changed
               Sometimes the feelings are the same
                  But I guess we'll never know

     Love, you said to me, is like being struck by lightning
                    I wonder if it ever will
       Answer all your prayers and scar you for a lifetime
             But then again I guess you'd never tell
                 And when I said it's not to be
                  It made a lot of sense to me
                   And it only makes more now
             That's not to say that it's all changed
               Sometimes the feelings are the same
                  But I guess we'll never know
