It Is Better To Have Loved And Lost Lyrics

Nat King Cole

(lewisweissmanlange)

Is it better
To have loved and lost,
Than never to have loved at all?
I wonder (i wonder),
I wonder (i wonder),
As my lonely teardrops fall.

Is it better
To have kissed and lost,
Than never to have felt the glow?
I wonder (i wonder),
I wonder (i wonder),
Then why do i miss you so?

Only those who've lost at love

Would know how a heart can cry.
And they would know the meaning of
Hearing a last goodbye.

Is it better
To have loved and lost,
Than never had my dream come true?
I wonder (i wonder),
I wonder (i wonder),
'cause i'm still in love with you.

I wonder (i wonder),
I wonder (i wonder),
'cause i'm still in love with you.
