Listen, the radio
Is playing our favorite tune
I don’t want you to go
We do what we have to do
When you step outside that door
It’s up to fortune’s whim
If this is the last our hands will hold
But the thought that lets me let you go is
That you never know
You never know

You’ll have a happy life
For you I want all the best
Maybe one day you’ll have a wife
Won’t she be the luckiest?
So I take one last breath of the space we share
And then you spray yourself with my perfume
‘Cause a memory might be all that’s left here
But you never know
You never know

Kiss me now just like you did last summer
When all that was dead in me sprang to life
Giving me the gift of hope and wonder
That makes this goodbye all right

The light turns red to green
Beautiful on your face
We turn down the final street
For you, I’m forever changed
And I don’t believe that this is ending
The story isn’t finished
So many miles to go
But I’m willing to let it surprise me
For now I’ll let you go
‘Cause you never know
