Is It Better To Have Loved And Lost - Nat King Cole

(Lewis/Weissman/Lange)


Is it better
To have loved and lost,
Than never to have loved at all?
I wonder (I wonder),
I wonder (I wonder),
As my lonely teardrops fall.


Is it better
To have kissed and lost,
Than never to have felt the glow? 
I wonder (I wonder),
I wonder (I wonder),
Then why do I miss you so?


Only those who've lost at love
Would know how a heart can cry.
And they would know the meaning of 
Hearing a last goodbye.


Is it better 
To have loved and lost,
Than never had my dream come true?
I wonder (I wonder),
I wonder (I wonder),
'Cause I'm still in love with you.


I wonder (I wonder),
I wonder (I wonder),
'Cause I'm still in love with you.
