I Thought of You

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.

Well, as he held me tightly in his arms

I tried to find the thrill that we once knew

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...
