She was so young
Off in the corner, the restaurant Dim
he looks at her and she smiling at him,
wish you could hear what he's trying to say
slipped in between while the waiter's away
She is so young in the spring of her life,
he in his autumn, and I know his wife
he took a chance when it came to can him, then
found is too late to start over again.
Life, can be, so hard, at times
man's only mortal and oftentimes frail
hard to success but so easy to fail.
Now he must tell her of all of his past
she will be leaving, it's over at last
left without either to love or forget
hoping to undo when he's down and yet
She is so young and so hard to resist
and he always felt there was something he missed
here comes the waiter, the bill on his tray
only a part of the price he must pay
Cause life, can be, so hard, at times
man's only mortal and so often frail
hard to success but so easy to fail.
