Don't look at the telephone, come away from the door
you know he won't be coming back no more
I know said he'd love you till his dying day
but that's just one of those things that lovers say

I know you won't believe me but one day the pain will pass
and you'll look back at this and smile
someone else will come along then just wait and see
how all this pain has been worthwhile

CHORUS
I know it hurts
you feel so dead inside
you can't go on
there's nowhere you can hide
you miss him so
no one ever felt like you
you look to me
but there's nothing I can do

one day you're in paradise the next day you're in hell
just be thankful you're alive and the difference you can tell
one who never learnt to walk is one who never fell
one day you're in paradise the next day your in hell

you may be surprised to know that I was once young
and I can tell you I was also stung but now I look in retrospect
it just had to be it never could have worked
it was so wrong

then one day someone came along and I'm sure you can see
that she and I were always meant to be 
so all the pain had been worthwhile or how would I know
just how much she does mean to me
