[Verse 1]
Look at the pretty way she walks
Listen to the sweetness in her talk
That's what I said when first we met
Three years have passed I can't forget

[Refrain]
Oh, loved her once, ooh, I wish I'd never (I wish I'd never)

[Verse 2]
Look at the pretty way she smiles
Look at the brightness in her eyes
That's what I said when first we met
Three years have passed I can't forget

[Refrain]
Oh, loved her once, ooh, I wish I'd never (I wish I'd never)

[Verse 3]
Take out your pencil and your book
Tell of the way my heart she took
And jot down those same old lines
You cheated on me your last time

[Refrain]
Oh, loved you once, ooh, I wish I'd never (I wish I'd never)
[Instrumental Break]
(I wish I'd never)

[Verse 3]
Take out your pencil and your book
Tell of the way my heart she took
And jot down all those same old lines
You cheated on me your last time

[Refrain]
Oh, loved you once, ooh, I wish I'd never (I wish I'd never)
Ooh, I wish I'd never
