She told me her story, hoped I would understand And I listened closely, as anybody can But there's a distant look that's in her eyes And as the nights grow longer, alone in bed she cries My baby met a man on her first date He stole her heart an' sealed her fate And she thought she'd found a friend for life He wanted her but not to be a wife La la li, la la li A fool for love never wonders why La la li, la la li She hangs on in but it's just another goodbye (Now) every day is like another day She lets it all drift on away An' every man is like another man They come and go but she never can And from sixteen to thirty-two She lost her loves and her good looks too It's so sad to see at first hand From a teenage beauty to a one night stand La la li, la la li A fool for love never wonders why La la li, la la li She hangs on in but it's just another goodbye (Now) every day is like another day She lets it all drift on away An' every man is like another man They come and go but she never can (Now) every day is like another day She lets it all drift on away An' every man is like another man They come and go but she never can - and fade
