I have fallen for another. She can make her own way home
And even when she asked me now, I let her go alone
I used to watch her up the Chapel when she went to Sunday mass
When she'd go up to receive, I'd kneel down there and watch her pass
She had a lot of class

I used to love her, used to love her once
A long time ago
I used to love her, used to love her once
A long time ago
It's gone. All my lovin' is gone
It's gone. All my lovin' is gone

I remember her collecting for Concern on Christmas Eve
She was on a forty-eight-hour pass, just water and black tea
I walked right up and make an ostentatious contribution
And I winked at her to tell her I'd seduce her in the future
When she's feeling looser

I used to love her, used to love her once
A long time ago
I used to love her, used to love her once
A long time ago
It's gone. All my lovin' is gone
It's gone. All my lovin' is gone
So now you know the truth of it. She's no longer my obsession
All thoughts and dreams I've had of her would take six months in confession
See, I met this young one Sunday night and she's into free expression
Her ambition is to rid the world of this sinful repression
Then we had a session

I used to love her, used to love her once
A long time ago
I used to love her, used to love her once
A long time ago
It's gone. All my lovin' is gone
It's gone. All my lovin' is gone

I have fallen for another, she can make her own way home
