Monday Morning Quarterback - Frank Sinatra

I know there were a hundred ways to tell her I loved her

It’s funny how they’re all so clear today

And when her face was burning with sadness and yearning

I don’t know why I turned my eyes away

But it’s so easy looking at the game the morning after

Adding up the kisses and the laughter

Knowing how you’d play it if the chance to play it over ever came

But then, a Monday morning quarterback never lost a game

The room was so alive with all her feelings and longings

I saw the spark of danger in her eyes

Well, how would it have hurt me if I’d turned back and held her?

A moment passes, something lovely dies

But it’s so easy looking at the game the morning after

Adding up the kisses and the laughter

Knowing how you’d play it if the chance to play it over ever came

But then, a Monday morning quarterback never lost a game

Yes, it’s easier to win it when you know you’d never play it quite the same

But then, this Monday morning quarterback never lost a game
