Never pine for the old love

There's a moment that I have longed for
We would meet after all these years
I can imagine the thrill of it
For I still think of all our dreams and tears
I see flowers and candlelight
And a tablecloth checked in red
And we sit holding hands
In our own small world
And never a word is said

For we so often pine for the old love
Kind, tender and true
Often pine for the old love
Rather than find love new

Now's the moment that I have dreamed of
Here we are on the fateful day
Hand in hand
Not a word is said
For we haven't got a thing to say
Here we sit in the candlelight
Waiting for the thrill to start
With the red checked tablecloth between us
We're twenty million miles apart

Oh you should never pine for the old love
Kind, tender and true
Never pine for the old love
Go out and find love new

Hey hey hey
But the world keeps turning
Here is something the evening showed
You go away and you grow away
And you travel a separate road
You take a dream just to keep you along
As milestones pass you by
But you are a different person
And surprisingly so am I

So you should never pine for the old love
Kind, tender and true
Never pine for the old love
Go out and find love new
