Medley: The Gal That Got Away/It Never Entered My Mind

The night is bitter

The stars have lost their glitter

The winds grow colder

Suddenly you're a lot older

And all because of a gal who got away

No more her eager call

The writing is on the wall

All those dreams you dreamed

They have all gone astray

The gal who won you

She's run off and undone you

That great beginning

Has seen the final inning

I don't know what happened

It's all a crazy game

No more, no more

That all time thrill

Because you have been put through the mill

And never a new love

Will ever be the same

Once I laughed when

I heard you saying

That I'd be playing solitaire

Uneasy in my easy chair

It never entered my mind

Once you told me, I was mistaken

That I'd awaken with the sun

And order orange juice for one

It never entered my mind

You have what I lack myself

And now I even have to scratch my back myself

Once you warned me

That if you scorned me

I'd say lover's prayer again

And wish that you were there again

To get into my hair again

It never entered my mind

Good riddance, goodbye

Every trick of hers you are onto

But fools will be fools

And where's she gone?

Where has she gone?

The road gets rougher

It's lonelier and it's tougher

With hope you burn up

Tomorrow maybe she'll turn up

There ain't no letter

We live long night

Night and day

Ever since, since this world began

There ain't nothing sadder than

A long lost loser

Looking for his gal

Who got away

Please, come back

Won't you come back?
