It would never have worked though I once thought it might
'Cause now we're as different as daytime and night
You still live for the good times beneath neon lights
While this swinger who loved you is rockin' tonight

And singin' and humming lullabies to a memory
And tears you made over right to a tee
And just like fairy tales, I guess I love you still
For I'm holding you close when I cuddle him next to me

Honey, I've no regrets, though I did for awhile
They all were erased with the first time he smiled
It's so hard for you, I know, to believe such a sight
This swinger you once loved is rockin' tonight

And singin' and humming lullabies to a memory
And tears you made over right to a tee
And just like fairy tales, I guess I love you still
For I'm holding you close when I cuddle him next to me
