I would have waited forever
if I'd known that you'd be here.
We could have shared our lives together
and held each other close all through the years.
But I met someone before you
and my heart just wouldn't wait,
So no matter how much I adore you
I've got to stand behind this promise that I made.
Where were you when I could have loved you?
Where were you when I gave my heart away?
All my life, I've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late
You came along one promise too late.
(INSTRUMENTAL)
I won't say that I'm sorry that I met you.
I can't have you but I never will forget you.
Where were you when I could have loved you?
Where were you when I gave my heart away?
All my life, darling, I've been dreaming of you.
You came along one promise too late.
You came along one promise too late.
(Repeat)
