This Was Never Meant to BeReleased as a b-side to the European single for I Was Brought to My Senses (A&M)and as a b-side to the North American single for I'm so Happy I Can't Stop Crying (A&M) Words and music by Sting and Anne Dudley This was never meant to be All the signs were there to see From the first moment that we met I knew This was never meant to be This was always doomed to fail From the moment we set sail All our instincts told us we were wrong This was never meant to be But soon we were enraptured in love's dance When the dance ended I found I couldn't live without you And now one of my dreams is sad embers Here in the cold of December And now you're in the arms of someone else I always knew that This was always second best Our love would fall at the first test Common sense would tell us we were wrong This was never meant to be This was never meant to last We drank our cup of love too fast From the first moment that we met I knew Now Miss, from our first kiss I tell you: this was never meant to be
