The Man That Got Away Lyrics by Barbra Streisand

The Man That Got Away Lyrics

    The night is bitter
    The stars have lost their glitter
    The winds grow colder
    Suddenly you're older
    And all because of the man that got away...
    No more his eager call,
    The writing's on the wall
    The dreams you've dreamed have all gone astray
    The man that won you, has run off and undone you
    That great beginning, has seen the final inning
    Don't know what happened, it's all a crazy game...
    No more that old time thrill
    For you've been through the mill
    And never a new love will be the same
    Good riddance, good-bye
    Every trick of his, you're on to
    But fools will be fools
    And where's he gone to?
    The road gets rougher
    It's lonelier and tougher
    With hope you burn up
    Tomorrow he may turn up
    There's just no let up
    But live lone night and day
    Ever since this world began
    There is nothing sadder than
    A one man woman looking for the man
    That got away...
    The man that got away...

    Up the songs you can't sing. you can't sing those dependent victim songs anymore with the same conviction, you know. for example, you can't sing: "i can be happy/i can be sad/i can be good/
    Can be bad/it all depends on you? can't do that, no, no. another nice thing about growing older is that you finally begin to appreciate yourself flaws and all. and this next song has taken me i
    Know how many hours, on i don't know how many couches to be able to sing and really mean it...
