Lyrics A Lifetime to Regret - George Jones

A Lifetime to Regret

Tonight I’m all alone and brokenhearted
The love we knew I never shall forget
And ever since that lonely night we parted
I’ve got a lifetime to regret
They tell me you are happy with another
I wonder if my memory lingers yet
The things I said the night we said goodbye dear
Oh I’ve got a lifetime to regret
If we could just erase mistakes we’ve made dear
I’m sure we could find happy moments yet
But we can’t change the past and I’m afraid dear
That I’ve got a lifetime to regret
I know down in my heart that I’m forgiven
For I’m just like a fish caught in a net
I lost a love that made my life worth living
I’ve got a lifetime to regret
