It's just another story
Seems like the only one they know
It often begins like summer wind
Ends in rain and snow
The actors you may recognize
It's quite a famous show
Called broken hearts and things we'll never know
Twilight, cut to bar room
See a young man without care
A lady enters, their eyes meet
So it goes from there
You may have seen this one before
Starts with a hello
Ends with broken hearts and things we'll never know
I was just a young man
When I first got the part
It never felt like acting
I played the role by heart
It may run a million years
Curtains never close
On broken hearts and things we'll never know
You've got to hold onto your dreams, my friends they always say
But dreams are not possessions
They can walk away
Another man will take her hand
It's how the story goes
Of broken hearts and things we'll never know
