The Nat King Cole Trio - Lester Leaps In lyrics

Disconnected, solitary, standing all alone Complicated, arbitrary, my feeling's still don't feel my own Now you've changed your mind, You reach out once again But how am I to tell you, I'm not who I was, back then That was another life, simply another life And baby it's all gone, don't you see the past is past That some things just aren't made to last No point in holding on to another life Desolated, disbelieving I watched you walk away You made your mind up, you didn't need me No words could ever make you want to stay Now I hear you tell me my heart's as hard as steel But I would never hurt you just to show you how, it feels That was another life, simply another life And baby it's all gone, don't you see the past is past And some things just aren't made to last No point in holding on to another life (Close your eyes) Close your eyes, let it rest Tell me you will be okay You've got to look ahead It's for the best, let me slip away That was another life, simply another life And baby it's all gone, don't you see the past is past That some things just aren't made to last No point in holding on to another life Let me slip away
