She stands by me faithfully
And I can’t say that I’m not happy
And I love her in my own special way
But back somewhere in my mind
Lives the true love of my life
And I still miss you everyday

I should have married you but what can I do
It’s too late and it would break too many hearts
So everyday I live in the shadow of the truth
Lookin’ back, I should have married you

So many times late at night
I sit staring at the fire
A warm feeling we once shared comes back to me
And there you are in my arms
We’re making promises together
Whatever happened to you and me?

I should have married you but what can I do
It’s too late and it would break too many hearts
So everyday I live in the shadow of the truth
Lookin’ back I should have married you

So everyday I live in the shadow of the truth
Lookin’ back, I should have married you
