I thought that when we parted
I'd broken all the ties that bind
But it's been a long time since I've seen Paula
And I can't get her out of my mind -- wanna tell you now:
(Chorus:)
I've got to lose my sorrow
[I've gotta think of/*Build a new dream for] tomorrow
'cause I don't wanna think about Paula anymore.
We used to have some happy times
And that's what I can't forget
'cause I keep seeing her smiling face
And I stay all upset -- can't you hear me now:
Chorus*
I keep trying to make a start
I've got to mend this broken heart
But ev'ry time I make a gain,
someone has to speek her name.
I don't care if the sun don't shine,
makes no difference to me
'cause there ain't a thing that the weather can do
to end my misery -- can't you hear me now:
Chorus (bis)
