Bobby Darin — The Gal That Got Away

The night is bitter The stars have lost their glitter The winds grow colder And suddenly you're older And all because of a gal That got away No more her eager call The writing's on the wall The dreams you dreamed Have all gone astray The girl that won you Has gone off and undone you That great beginning Has seen it's final inning Don't know what happened It's all a crazy game No more that all time thrill You've been through the mill And never a new love Will be the same Good riddance, goodbye Every trick of hers you're on to But fools will be fools And where's she gone to The road gets rougher It's lonelier and tougher With hope you burn up Tomorrow she may turn up There's no let up The live long night and day Ever since the world began There is nothing sadder than A one girl guy Lookin' for the girl that got away The road gets rougher It's lonelier and tougher With hope you burn up Tomorrow she may turn up There's no let up The live long night and day Ever since, since the world began There is nothing sadder than A one girl guy One girl guy One girl guy lookin' for The gal that got away
