|
What a shame she had to go |
|
Now the fire's just an ember |
|
And the sweet love we've known |
|
Is just a time to remember |
|
Too much, too fast |
|
Should'a known we'd crash |
|
Now I'm goin' through the motions |
|
But I can't stop my devotion |
|
I'm running short on the spice of life these days |
|
Whatever it takes is getting farther away |
|
I let down my guard, I fell and I fell hard |
|
In a flash of pain |
|
Now I'm running short on the spice of life these days |
|
Didn't win, place or show |
|
But I sure learned a lesson |
|
'Bout how much I could lose |
|
Even with the best intentions |
|
Now love makes the rules |
|
And I know love can be cruel |
|
But I'd sure like to trade |
|
Some new for some old days |
|
I did my stuff, kept hangin' tough |
|
But I just don't hit the mow |
|
And the way to your heart nearly tore me apart |
|
And it's got me down so low |
|
I'm running short on the spice of life these days |
|
My pure love, was purely by mistake |
|
I let down my guard, I fell and I fell hard |
|
In a flash of pain |
|
Now I'm running short on the spice of life these days |
|
Yeah, I'm running short on the spice of life these days |
