No! No regrets No! I will have no regrets All the things That went wrong For at last I have learned to be strong No! No regrets No! I will have no regrets For the grief doesn't last It is gone I've forgotten the past And the memories I had I no longer desire Both the good and the bad I have flung in a fire And I feel in my heart That the seed has been sown It is something quite new It's like nothing I've known No! No regrets No! I will have no regrets All the things that went wrong For at last I have learned to be strong No! No regrets No! I will have no regrets For the seed that is new It's the love that is growing for you

What's it all about, Alfie Is it just for the moment we live What's it all about when you sort it out, Alfie Are we meant to take more than we give Or are we meant to be kind And if only fools are kind, Alfie Then I guess it is wise to be cruel And if life belongs only to the strong, Alfie What will you lend on an old golden rule As sure as I believe There's a heaven above, Alfie, I know there's something much more Something even non-believers can believe in I believe in love, Alfie Without true love we just exist, Alfie Until you find the love you've missed, you're nothing, Alfie When you walk, let your heart lead the way And you'll find love any day, Alfie Alfie
