|
It's a shame for you to do me the way you did, babe |
|
Making me put you down before |
|
I was through |
|
You tempted me and tried me and |
|
I kept you right beside me |
|
You ruined me for everyone but you |
|
It's easy to love a thing so warm and soothing |
|
That gets you through the night so tenderly |
|
But after all these nights with you all |
|
I remember |
|
Is forgetting just how cold your heart can be |
|
Leaving you won't be any harder |
|
Than walking out the door and leaving town |
|
But I'll be leaving, knowing, surviving, you don't make me stronger |
|
Than the weakest man who's ever turned you down |
|
The body in that pretty dress you wore dear |
|
Fit my shaking hand just like a glove |
|
But tremblings for the fearful, old and crying |
|
Getting old and sad, and scared ain't worth your love |
|
So will you let me go just like |
|
I came, babe? |
|
Willful, clear of mind and free to see |
|
Clear enough to see the others like you |
|
And mindful my will breaks so easily |
|
Leaving you won't be any harder |
|
Than walking out the door and leaving town |
|
But I'll be leaving, knowing, surviving, you don't make me stronger |
|
Than the weakest man who's ever turned you down |
|
And leaving you won't be any harder |
|
Than walking out the door and leaving town |
|
But I'll be leaving, knowing, surviving, you don't make me stronger |
|
Than the weakest man who's ever turned you down |
