He'll fall asleep touching her skin
And wake up alone
He'll call out her name in the night
And she will be gone
Just when he thinks he's found
Someone to turn his world around
She'll vanish again

He'll never know how often
She's done this before
There are so many warnings he'll choose
To simply ignore
Just when he thinks he's saved
The same tragic scene is replayed
She'll vanish again

There'll always be somebody else
Just over the rise
The proof is right there in her eyes
She'll do it to him don't you see
She's done it to me

And just when he thinks he's found
Someone to turn his world around
She'll vanish again

Just when he's feeling so sure
And he says that magic word
She'll vanish again
