Last night another held me in his arms
A lover's moon was shining bright and clear
He whispered words of love so tenderly
But I couldn't say the words he longed to hear.
I thought of you and things that might have been
I thought of you and it was useless to pretend
Oh, when he asked me if I loved him too
I closed my eyes sweetheart and thought of you.

It would have broken his heart if he had known
That I was just pretending it was you.
I thought of you and things that might have been
I thought of you and it was useless to pretend
Oh, when he asked me if I loved him too
I closed my eyes sweetheart and thought of you...
