so the jokes' on him
stupid mistakes 1, 2, 3 started it
stupid mistakes 4, 5, 6 finished it

he asked,
"where is the laughter?"
"where are the big smiles?"
"they're gone!" she says, "they're all gone"

Maybe it could have turned out better
Maybe it should have turned out better
But we'll never know.
That's right. We'll never know

They'll move on, and leave the past behind
They'll move on, and never say goodbye

it was fun while it lasted
it was fun till he got busted
"was it all a game?"
"Did we ever know the real you?"

"of course it wasn't! I'm not really like that"
but its too late
They're gone.
They're all gone

So he asked himself
"was any of that real?"
"was it all a game?"

"i don't know"
"i don't know"
"I DON'T KNOW"

But he knew.
oh he knew.
And off he went, with his head hung low in shame.
