The colder the night gets, the further she strays 
And he doesn't like it being this way 
And she tried so hard to steer away from the meeting place 
But her heart had led her there 
  She clings to his consciousness wherever he lays 
He struggles to sleep at night and during the day 
He's worried she's waiting in his dreams 
To drag him back to the meeting place 
His love had left him there 
Where her voice still echoes 
"I'm sorry I met you, darling, I'm sorry I met you" 
As she turned into the night, all he had was the words 
"I'm sorry I met you, darling, I'm sorry I've left you" 
  For weeks they had strolled around, playing the fools 
They knew the time would come and time would be cruel 
Because it is cruel to everyone 
He's crying out from the meeting place 
He's stranded himself there 
Where her voice still echoes 
"I'm sorry I met you, darling, I'm sorry I met you" 
As she turned into the night, all he had was the words 
"I'm sorry I met you, darling, I'm sorry I've left you" 
  "I'm sorry I met you, darling, I'm sorry I've left you"
