There Will Never Be Another
McMaster & James Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Romeo and Juliet who could forget
Their love was certainly a test, exceptional but not the best
Superman and Lois Lane, they came close
But not the same
But there′s no way they could compare
To this conditional love we share
There will never be another love like ours
And tonight it will be written in the stars

You could travel accross the universe
And never come this far
There will never be another love like ours

Maid Marion and Robinhood
We all know that their love was good
But there's no way they could compare
To this conditional love we share

So pure, divine stand the test of time
Growing stronger every day...

Never be, never be, never be another love
Never be, never be, never be another love
