The Kind Of Love You Never Recover From with lyrics (Not Cry Cry Cry - see comments)

I know a couple; she sits in her rocking chair, working her puzzles he watches TV upstairs.
Shes got a secret she has never let out, and she thinks he never knew about.
She hasnt seen him for 30 years, mention of his name doesnt bring on tears, if you ask her,
Are there any regrets? shell tell you no, but she never forgets.

It was the kind of love you never recover from.
Even though she found someone else to take his place, she never will escape the truth.
At times like this, when the moon is bright; when the air is foggy like it is tonight;
She thinks about what might have been, if she had just held on to him.

I know a man who has done it all: sailed the ocean, climbed the mountains of Nepal.
He lives high upon the avenue, with a beautiful wife, loving children too.
But theres a woman he still dreams about certain things hes learned to live without
If you ask him, Are there any regrets? hell tell you no, but he never forgets.

It was the kind of love you never recover from.
Even though he found someone else to take his place, he never will escape the truth.
At times like this, when the moon is bright; when the air is foggy like it is tonight;
He thinks about what might have been, if he had not let her slip away from him.

I read about a woman who said shed never regret anything shed ever done.
Such arrogant words always seem to be spoken by those who then die young.

So here am I, looking at you. Tell me what are we going to do?
Am I destined to be your regret? Are you the one Ill never forget?

Years from now will we rue the day, you let me let you walk away?
Isnt this too dear a price to pay, for the freedom of going separate ways?

This is the kind of love you never recover from.
People tell me Ill find someone else to take your place I never will escape the truth.
At times like this when the moon is bright when the air is foggy like it is tonight;
Think how sweet life could be, if you would stay with me, oh stay with me

This is the kind of love you never recover from.
Dont tell me Ill find someone else to take your place and try to face the truth.
Let me hold you close tonight the fog is lifting, and the moon is so bright.
Think how sweet life could be if you would stay with me, oh stay with me!
This is the kind of love you never recover from.
This is the kind of love you never recover from.

@Kurokotsu357 You don't need to be a jerk about it, pal.

@eladu86 When someone corrects the artist of a song, I expect them to actually state the original artist, not someone who did a 'different version' or some crap.

[Kurokotsu357]

@eladu86 Wrong answer, bud. The true original artist is Christine Lavin.

This is an amazing song, but not by Cry Cry Cry- it's Dar williams and Hugh Blumenfeld
