I had a dream last night, you were layin´ next to me,

but then the morning light shines in,

waking a man lonely as he can be..

It´s too bad you had to leave, a shame you had to go, girl,

It´s too bad you had to leave, a shame you had to go, girl,

I guess this was just not our time,

when it comes to love you´ll never know..

Can´t find no substitute, no one can ever take your place,

Can´t find no substitute, no one can ever take your place, (in my heart)

I´ll keep on waitin´ for the next time, baby,

my path will cross your lovin´ ways (one of these days)

Nothing happens without reason, so now I´ve stopped asking why,

Nothing happens without reason so now I´ve stopped asking why,

But bear in your heart,

my love for you will never die..

But bear in your heart,
