if at first you don't suceed, try and try and try and try again.
I didn't think this would be so hard; both the songwriter Christy Hennessy and recording artist Frances Black are well-known (in Ireland, anyway)

Thanks, Wolfgang. You vie with Joe Offer as the supersleuth of web searches.
Boy is that song embedded; I nearly didn't read enough of the text at your link to notice that the lyrics were included!

I believe that, Philippa, I also thought at first I was on the wrong track.

From: Jim Dixon

Found at The Frances Black Homepage:

ALL THE LIES THAT YOU TOLD ME
Christie Hennessy

All the lies that you told me, all the tears that I've cried,
All the loving you gave me, it was a lie.
I could never imagine, when I felt so high,
That there could be somebody new better than you in my life.

When I woke up this morning, with tears in my eyes
I never felt more like saying goodbye.
I could never imagine, when I felt so high,
That there could be somebody new better than you in my life.

CHORUS: Am I just fooling myself?
Could there be somebody else?
Could there be somebody new, waiting around the corner?
Yes, there is, waiting for you, waiting for someone like you.

All the nights that you told me, all your loving was mine,
And I wanted to listen, to all of your lies.
I could never imagine, when I felt so high,
That there could be somebody new better than you in my life.

CHORUS

All the nights that you told me, all your loving was mine,
Now there could be somebody new Better than you in my life.

[Recorded by Frances Black, Christie Hennessy, and Jerry Hughes.]
