In the pale neao light of a saturday night
You`ll see him walk up to the bar
He`ll size up the ladies the `no`s` and the `maybe`s`
Till he finds one who`ll let down her guard
Then the band on his hand gets slipped off again
And his disarming charm starts to work
And with a drink and a lie int he blink of an eye
Something amazing occurs
He`s suddenly single
Isntantly free
And for three or four hours
He`s the man of her dreams
He acts like there`s no one waiting at home
He`ll be suddenly single
Till he`s suddenly gone
He sneaks through the door at a quarter to four
But tonight there`s no one to wake
The note that she wrote him says `I`ve given up hoping
I`d be able to change you someday`
He sists on the bed shaking his head
A man in complete disbelief
He knows what he`s lost
Oh but he never thought
someday he`d really be
Suddenly single
Instantly free
And for the rest of his life
She`ll haunt his dreams
And now there`ll be no one waiting at home
He`s suddenly single
`Cause she`s suddenly gone
He`s suddenly single
`Cause she`s suddenly gone
