[Verse 1]
I sit alone and I wait by the phone as I'm afraid I'll miss your call
The sound of your voice still fills me with joy as it echoes off tables and walls
The smell of your hair still fills up the air, the smell of your sweet sweet perfume
And I sit and wait for my beautiful date, then I know you ain't coming home

[Chorus]
We denied our fate
Yeah, we could'a gone all the way
And I hate our heartache
Hurts worse than a holiday
And we denied our fate
Yeah, we could'a gone all the way
And I hate our heartache
Hurts worse than a holiday

[Verse 2]
I sit and admire as you sit by the fire so Jack Frost don't nip at your nose
I give you a wink as I pour you a drink, you smile and slip out of your clothes
The warmth of your touch, yeah, it's making me blush and your eyes they got something to say
So I'll be your host if you'll be my ghost
And let the Lord take me away

[Bridge]
[?]
[Chorus]
We denied our fate
Yeah, we could'a gone all the way
And I hate our heartache
Hurts worse than a holiday
And we denied our fate
Yeah, we could'a gone all the way
And I hate our heartache
Hurts worse than a holiday

[Verse 3]
The morning light shines on a woman of mine, you sure are a sight for sore eyes
The wind hits the window where you used to sit and it sounds like a lonely man's cry
Hold on my hand and call me your man like you did before we were at war
And don't make me think, it just let me drink and forget you don't live here no more

[Chorus]
We denied our fate
Yeah, we could'a gone all the way
And I hate our heartache
Hurts worse than a holiday
And we denied our fate
Yeah, we could'a gone all the way
And I hate our heartache
Hurts worse than a holiday
