Christine Lavin
"The Kind Of Love You Never Recover From"

I know a couple; she sits in a rocking chair
Working puzzles; he watches TV upstairs
She's got a secret she has never let out;
A man she thinks he never knew about

She hasn't seen him in thirty years
The mention of his name doesn't bring on tears
If you ask her, "Are there any regrets?"
She'll tell you, "No," but she never forgets

It was the kind of love you never recover from
Even though she found another one
To take his place,
She never will escape the truth

At times like this when the moon is right,
When the air is foggy like it is tonight,
She'll think about what might have been
If she had just held on to him

I know a man who has done it all;
He has sailed the oceans; climbed the mountains of Nepal
He lives high upon the avenue
With a beautiful wife, lovely children, too

But there's a woman he still dreams about;
Certain things he has learned to live without
If you ask him, "Are there any regrets?"
He'll tell you, "No," but he never forgets

It was the kind of love you never recover from
Even though he found another one
To take her place,
He never will escape the truth

At times like this when the moon is right,
When the air is foggy like it is tonight,
He'll think about what might have been
If he had not let her slip away from him

I read about a woman who said she never regretted anything she'd ever done
Such arrogant words always seem to be spoken by those who then die young

So here am I looking at you
Oh, tell me, what are we gonna do?
Am I destined to be your regret?
Are you that one I'll never forget?

Years from now, will we curse the day
You let me let you walk away?
Isn't this too dear a price to pay
For the freedom of going separate ways?

This is the kind of love you never recover from
Don't tell me that I'm gonna find another one
To take your place,
I never will escape the truth

At times like this when the moon is right,
When the air is foggy like it is tonight,
I'll 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
Don't tell me that I'm gonna find another one
To take your place,
And try to face the truth

Let me hold you close tonight
The fog has lifted, 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
