But when all is said and done
It wasn’t meant to be
Although we had such fun
The recollection of times we shared
I know our lives have changed
The memories remain
My carefree lover
[Chorus]
She was a girl I knew (I knew) back then (back then)
Way back when there were no cares (no cares) in my world (in my world)
She was my friend (my friend)
My carefree lover
It seems we were in love so free
But nothing never seems the way it used to be before
There’ll be no other
She will be my one and only carefree lover
She will be my only one
We talk the night through until dawn
Impassioned by our thoughts and spending time alone
You never would drive home
Until the birds would sing the morning had arrived
And how I reminisce the best days of our lives
My carefree lover
[Chorus]
She was a girl I knew (I knew) back then (back then)
Way back when there were no cares (no cares) in my world (in my world)
She was my friend (my friend)
My carefree lover
It seems we were in love so free
But nothing never seems the way it used to be before
There’ll be no other
She will be my one and only carefree lover
She will be my only one
She was a girl I knew back then
Way back when there were no cares in my world
She was my friend
My carefree lover
It seems we were in love so free
But nothing never seems the way it used to be before
There’ll be no other
She will be my one and only carefree lover
She was a girl I knew back then (She will be my only one)
Way back when there were no cares (no cares) in my world (in my world)
She was my friend
My carefree lover
