lyrics

If you caught me singing in bed
With somebody new
Would you join in the chorus
Or adopt another point of view?

It's better to have loved and lost
Than never to have lost at all.
It's better to have loved and lost
Than never to have lost at all.

If you found me playing a round
Of golf in the night
Would you break my concentration
Or offer me the choice of fight or flight?

It's better to have loved and lost…

If you heard those Chinese whispers
Who would you kill?
One of my suspected lovers
Or me with your consummate skill?

It's better to have loved and lost...
