Noël Coward
Never Again
No, never again
Never the strange unthinking joy
Never the pain
Let me be wise
Let me learn to doubt romance
Try to live without romance
Let me be sane
Time
Changes the tune
Changes the pale unwinking stars, even the moon
Let me be soon
Strong enough to flout romance
And say you're out romance
Never again

It's over now, the dream is over now
Maybe it really wasn't so important anyhow
What's been can't be again reluctantly I see
My heart is free again
Belongs to me again
The brief illusion I looked for has gone
No more confusion and tears from now on
To start again
Would break my heart again
If you should ask me to
I'd say to hell with you
