How was I supposed to know? |
|
You didn't tell me they were gold |
|
I didn't smell the coming snow |
|
And now they're ruined by the cold |
|
How was I supposed to share? |
|
You didn't tell me they were fair |
|
I didn't see them going spare |
|
And now they're buried over there |
|
How was I supposed to see? |
|
You didn't tell me they were free |
|
I didn't hear the falling leaves |
|
And now they're rotting underneath |
|
How was I to have a clue? |
|
You didn't tell me they were new, no |
|
I didn't kneel upon the pew |
|
And now it's hard to tell the truth |
