Remember

Remember when we first met

how our hearts did pound

and we thought

it was love we had found
 

Remember how the ties did bind

when we realized

it was love

we could never find
 

I wanted to give you my heart

but instead, you took my love

and swore you would never leave

you did and left behind the things you loved
 

You didn’t care about who you hurt

you didn’t think about what it was worth

you got what you wanted

that was all you cared about
 

Well baby, is it like you were told

come on honey,

 did you find that pot of gold

well girl, I could have told you so

because you haven’t traveled far enough
down that long lonesome road
 

When you come to that dead end street

it’s going to knock you off your feet

everything you thought was so sweet

will end up in your defeat
