Late Great Lover lyrics

Before I met you, I used to get around

And I could have most any girl in any town

But when I fell for you, all my playboy days were through

You sure knew just how to tear my playhouse down

Just call me the late and great lover

Since I lost you, I could never love another

I met my Waterloo when I fell in love with you

Just call me the late and great lover

That was a fateful day when I laid eyes on you

I didn't know that you were a great lover, too

And then you said goodbye with a twinkle in your eye

You walked right out the front door with somebody new

Just call me the late and great lover

Since I lost you, I could never love another

I met my Waterloo when I fell in love with you

Just call me the late and great lover

Just call me the late and great lover
