When will I? When will I? When will I? When will I look back and laugh? When will I? When will I? When will I look back at life, When will I look back and laugh? Yesterday, when my love was far away In the arms of another man, oh Don't you know it made my heart beat slow? In the past, I had a love made my heart beat fast She made me feel good, good, good She left me right where I stood When will I? When will I? When will I? When will I look back and laugh? When will I? When will I? When will I look back at life, When will I look back and laugh? Once upon a time when my heart was strong I was younger and I didn't much care I said no one could hurt me there Now that I've been broken in four or five
I decided I was wrong, wrong, wrong Hope I didn't wait too long When will I? When will I? When will I? When will I look back and laugh? When will I? When will I? When will I look back at life, When will I look back and laugh? A long time ago I left a woman 'cause she couldn't let go I was putting on my walking shoes She was crying out some genuine blues Well I've lived a life, full of troubles and lovers and strife I'm trying to understand what went wrong While I'm standing here singing this song When will I? When will I? When will I? When will I look back and laugh? When will I? When will I? When will I look back at life, When will I look back and laugh?
