The Alan Parsons Project
Sometimes
She wants so much to say
The things she thought about today
He never dreamed that she could care
He's lookin’ everywhere
And knows love won't play fair

And as the years go by
She sometimes stops to wonder why
But his story's not the same
No matter who you blame
It’s still a cryin' shame

Sometimes you win
Sometimes you lose
Sometimes you try to keep love to yourself
'Cause you're tired of being used

And so you learn
What life's about
The older grow wiser
And fall in love
Sometimes

So they think of good times past
And all the things they thought would last
Now there they go again
A different where and when

It's too late to defend
Those feelings on the cuff
And when they think they've had enough
All the things they saved before
Love became a chore
Will live for evermore

Sometimes you win
Sometimes you lose
Sometimes you try to keep love to yourself
'Cause you’re tired of being used
And so you learn
What life’s about
The older grow wiser
And fall in love sometimes

Sometimes you win
Sometimes you lose
Sometimes you try to keep love to yourself
'Cause you’re tired of being used

And so you learn
What life's about
The older grow wiser
And fall in love
Sometimes
Sometimes

The older grow wiser
And fall in love
Sometimes
Sometimes
