She came on like the night
And she held on tight

And the world was right
When she made love to me.
We were free.
She moved in like a friend

Started loving me.
And I thought I'd found the heaven in her eyes.
But the morning when I woke up

I was here and she was gone;
Now I'm hanging on.
Maybe you can tell me hovv a love so right
Can turn out to be so wrong

Oh
my darling.
How a love so right
Can turn out to be so wrong.
Where did she go when I need her close to me'
And the perfect story ended at the start.
I thought you came forever

And you came to break my heart.
Now I'm hanging on
On the chance that you'll come back to me.
How a love so right
Can turn out to be so wrong;
Oh
my darling

How a love so right
Can turn out to be so wrong

Oh
my darling.
I could take it in my stride

Start living for the moment.
Maybe half the things we sought
Were never there.
Simply open up your eyes
And break it down to size.
It isn't really fair

How a love so right
Can turn out to be so wrong.
Oh
my darling

How a love so right
Can turn out to be so wrong.
