when u was a baby
I took u in
and more than any other
i called u friend
for yrs we were perfect
then u flipped the script
with ur lying eyes and ur cheating hips
kicked me to the curve
and thats where i'd a laid
when love was gone
yet my soul remained
now I'm done fooling
don't have to abide
no need to plead
or question why
hard to believe
the road thats been paved
our ship took on water
none were saved
hard to believe
how the story will be told
something's u hold on to
'some u just let go
When u was my lady
I forsook the world
there was no other
meant more than my girl
said we were perfect
shoulda knocked on wood
Threw a dollar in that fountain
didn't do me no good
kicked to the curve
and thats where i'd a laid
when love was gone
yet my soul remained
now I'm done fooling
don't have to abide
no need to wonder
no need to cry
