 All the good times have all been in vain,

 It's a shame, such a shame, such a shame.

 It's a shame, cuz I didn't want to cause you any pain,

 But I know that it wouldn't be the same

 All the good times have all been in vain

 It's a shame, such a shame, such a shame.

 It's a shame, cuz I didn't intend to do you wrong

 I'd come back but it wouldn't last for long

 I would if I could but I can't

 It's a shame, such a shame, such a shame.

 It's a shame, such a shame, cuz I swore I'd never let you down

 But I was the one who was doing wrong

 It's a shame, such a shame, such a shame.

 Cuz I didn't intend to do you wrong

 I'd come back but it wouldn't last for long

 I would if I could but I can't

 It's a shame, such a shame, such a shame.
