So where do we go from here.
Let’s skip the remorse and the tears
‘Cause I don’t think hindsight,
Ever recovered lost years.
Let’s try to have some fun.
No need to review the reruns.
Whatever has happened, it’s happened,
And it can’t be undone.
We’ll trade in our passion
For a sense of humor.
And was your love for me,
Just a rumor ?
But I won’t hold that against you.
We’ll make it a joke between you and me.
Our little joke is on you me.
CHORUS
But it’s all right, baby.
It could have been worse,
When we got to the end.
But it’s all right , baby.
We lost out as lovers.
I hope we don’t lose out as friends.
Well I guess I don’t know how you feel.
Thinking that it was for real.
But you were still pondering.
I thought it was a done deal.
But no need to sing the blues,
It’s already yesterday’s news.
A mistaken identity,
Stranded inside the wrong shoes.
I never could figure out what you needed.
Maybe another man could have succeeded.
Changing in mid stream,
Every time you changed your mind.
Following behind.
I had to learn that I’m not that kind.
But it’s all right , baby
It could have been worse ,
When we got to the end.
It’s all right, baby.
We lost out as lovers .
I hope we don’t lose out as friends.
I hope you know ,
won’t go running to your friends.
Lashing out at you.
And I sure hope you’ve the discretion .
Stick to that policy too.
So , what are we going to do
You know I still have a thing for you.
But it’s all right , baby.
It could have been worse ,
When we got to the end.
It’s all right baby,
We lost out as lovers .
I hope we don’t lose out as friends.
Lose out as friends.
Cause I need a friend .
And it’s all right.
