Darling after loving you what else is there to do
Cause darling all the rest will just be second best
I know I'll go tonight comparing into you I'll be no good to anyone after loving you
Your love can't be replaced with just another pretty face
And heartaches will remain for they can't re-erase
Many loves may come along but they won't live up to you
I'll be no good to anyone after loving you
