Frank Sinatra - The Gal That Got Away lyrics

The night is bitter
The stars have lost their glitter
The winds grow colder
Suddenly you're a lot older
And all because of the gal that got away

No more her eager call
The writing's on the wall
The dreams you dreamed have all gone astray

The gal that won you
Has run off and undone you
That great beginning
Has seen it's final inning
Don't know what happened
It's all a crazy game

No more, that all time thrill
For you've been though the mill
And never a new love will be the same

Good riddance, goodbye
Every trick of hers, you're on to
But fools will be fools
And where she gone to?

The road gets rougher
It's lonelier and it's tougher
With hope you burn up
Tomorrow she may turn up
There just no let up
The live long night and day

Ever since this world began
There is nothing sadder than
A lost lost loser
Looking for the gal who got away

Please come back won't you come back
The gal that got away
