It's Sad To Belong By Randy Goodrum, England Dan and John Ford Coley (#5 in 1977)

Met you on a springtime day;
You were mindin' your life and I was mindin' mine too.
And lady when you looked my way,
I had a strange sensation, and darlin' that's when I knew,
That

    It's sad to belong to someone else when the right one comes along.
    Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else when the right one comes along.


Oh, I wake up in the night
And I reach beside me hopin' you will be there.
But instead I find someone who believed in me when I said I'd always care.
Oh
    Chorus

So I'll live my life in a dream world for the rest of my days.
Just you and me walking hand in hand in a wishful memory.
Oh, I guess that's all that it will ever be.

I wish I had a time machine;
I could make myself go back until the day I was born.
And I would live my life again,
And rearrange it so that I'd be yours from now on.  Oh,
  Chorus and fade
