Before I met you, I used to get around
And I could have most any girl in any town
But when I fell for you, all my playboy days were through
You sure knew just how to tear my playhouse down
Just call me the late and great lover
Since I lost you, I could never love another
I met my Waterloo when I fell in love with you
Just call me the late and great lover
That was a fateful day when I laid eyes on you
I didn't know that you were a great lover, too
And then you said goodbye with a twinkle in your eye
You walked right out the front door with somebody new
Just call me the late and great lover
Since I lost you, I could never love another
I met my Waterloo when I fell in love with you
Just call me the late and great lover
Just call me the late and great lover
