W hen we first met on the rooftop of that hot el
Everyone arou nd us could see we got on w ell
So we took the elev ator straight up to the forty second f loor
When we k issed in your doorway it's like we n ever kissed bef ore
I was in love ag ain and I knew that you were t oo
We spent e very night together nothing was tab oo
And early in the m orning with the sunlight in your h air
I knew w e'd stick together you were the a nswer to my p rayers
How could I be so w rong (so wrong) for so l ong (so long)
How could I be so w rong (so wrong) for so l ong (so long)
How could I (how could I) be so w rong (so wrong) for so l ong (so long)
All the time we s pent together so close and t rue
Living for each o ther together thru the b lues
Two stars crossed l overs beneath the Tennessee m oon
We were n ear as we could be to J ohnny Cash and J une
How could I be so w rong (so wrong) for so l ong (so long)
How could I be so w rong (so wrong) for so l ong (so long)
How could I (how could I) be so w rong (so wrong) for so l ong (so long)
For so l ong (for so long)
For so l ong
Then I heard a r umor from an old friend of m ine
You've been seeing s omeone else I never saw the s igns
I hope he makes you h appy and that he is happy t oo
And j ust like all the others I 'll get over y ou
But how could I be so w rong (so wrong) for so l ong (so long)
How could I be so w rong (so wrong) for so l ong (so long)
How could I (how could I) be so w rong (so wrong) for so l ong (so long)
How could I be so w rong for so l ong
