Donna loves Bobby

And Bobby loves Sue

Sue loves Jimmy

And Jimmy loves you

You love Ronnie

But I love him too

We're at the prom

But I ain't gonna cry

I ain't gonna cry

I ain't gonna cry

We're at the prom

I'll dance with somebody else

I'll dance with somebo-

Ah, maien Zeit!

Ade nun, helles lustgeton

Ah, maien Zeit!

Ade du junges lieben

Du warst so schoen, so schoen

Du warst-

One year ago

The 12th of May

That luncheonette where he appeared

I see him first

And then he smiles

I won't forget

I won't forget

Something sad is playing on the jukebox

A girl who lost her boyfriend to a friend

I can't remember my husband's face

I can't remember my lover's face

But I can remember a stranger's face

His name is Tom

I leave a tip

Do not look back

I reach the park

And he appears

That brilliant smile

Those two-toned shoes

His eyes are green

He says "hello"

Suddenly the city feels on fire

It's like the world has finally reached an end

I don't remember my husband's voice

I don't remember my lover's voice

But I do remember I hear that voice

And I'm wanting to run

I'm wanting to scream

I'm wanting to cry

And I ask his name

And we kiss

And the angels sigh

We kiss

And the heavens smile

We fly like angels would like to fly

We kiss

And say goodbye

What's better is what would have been

What's sweeter is what would have been

The 12th of May

That brilliant smile

The greatest of adventures of my life!

I can't remember my husband's name

I can't remember my lover's name

But I can remember what would have been

It has a name
