I’m lying here in a new lover’s arms,
The rain falling softly outside.
He just loved me so tenderly,
Tries hard to make everything right.

I do okay ’til my thoughts slip away,
Then I start losing my mind,
‘Cause I have regrets and I can’t forget,
The one I left behind.

Chorus:

The one that I left behind
With kisses sweeter than wine,
I know he can never be mine,
The one I left behind.

I’ll fall asleep in my new lovers arms,
He thinks I love him so,
But there are somethings I’ve never
explained,
That maybe he should not know.

When I close my eyes, I say a prayer,
That he will forgive me in time,
For all the hurt I’ve put him through,
The one that I left behind.

Chorus:

The one that I left behind,
With kisses sweeter than wine,
I know he can never be mine,
The one I left behind…

The one that I left behind,
With kisses sweeter than wine,
I know he can never be mine,
The one that I left behind…
Oh, the one I left behind.
