And I will never find a new
Expresses the speaker's belief that he won't be able to find a new love.
But if one pass me by

I'll still be wondering why

And leave me standing all alone

Well, it might be foolish of me

There will be other girls that I will meet

But still I'm neither young you see

But that's the guarantee

And things will never be the same

And where are you to ease my pain

For good, for good, for good
