It´s not very far from tears to mirth There are not many moments that will capture your breath It´s not very long that you spend on this earth She´d never know just what Harry was worth She´ll never know
He walked the wet sands of summertime Rain beat the window in drummertime Cruel with his humour She was quick with her tongue But though a year had passed The honeymoon didn´t last Somehow they didn´t seem young
It´s not very far from tears to mirth There are not many moments that will capture your breath
It´s not very long that you spend on this earth She´d never know just what Harry was worth She´ll never know
They´re on their holidays But they still find a reason to fight No matter how long they stay Can´t make the rest of the year right
Five years had passed ´til I happened along He said, "Do you hear that noise? Well, that once was our song" I looked in her eyes and saw barely a spark He laughed too loud then he drank until dark
It´s not very far from tears to mirth It´s not many moments that will capture your breath
It´s not very long that you spend on this earth She´d never know just what Harry was worth She´ll never know what Harry was worth She´ll never know what Harry was worth No, she´ll never know what Harry was worth She´ll never know what Harry was worth No, she´ll never know what Harry was worth She´ll never know what Harry was worth
