Is It Better To Have Loves And Lost
(lewis/weissman/lange)

Is it better
To have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all?
I wonder (I wonder)
I wonder (I wonder)
As my lonely teardrops fall

Is it better
To have kissed and lost
Than never to have felt the glow?
I wonder (I wonder)
I wonder (I wonder)
Then why do I miss you so?

Only those who've lost at love
Would know how a heart can cry
And they would know the meaning of
Hearing a last goodbye

Is it better
To have loved and lost
Than never had my dream come true?
I wonder (I wonder)
I wonder (I wonder)
'cause I'm still in love with you
I wonder (I wonder)
I wonder (I wonder)
'cause I'm still in love with you
