It's been a long time comin' and the card were stacked.
|
It's been a long hard road to hell and back.
|
Your love meant trouble from the day we met.
|
You won every hand, I lost every bet.
|
|
Now you'd think that I should've known better.
|
Now I think that I should've seen it come.
|
My heart sank when I read that letter.
|
It sank like a stone, it sank like a stone.
|
|
A cup of cold coffee, yesterday's mail.
|
A bad love like this is always bound to fail.
|
Your love meant trouble from the day we met.
|
If you want your things, they're on the front step.
|
|
Now you'd think that I should've known better.
|
Now I think that I should've seen it come.
|
My heart sank when I read that letter.
|
It sank like a stone, it sank like a stone.
|
|
All alone in my kitchen.
|
All alone in my head.
|
Somethings you can't take back, once they've been said.
|
I don't know what this love is for.
|
All I know is I don't want it anymore.
|
|
Now you'd think that I should've known better.
|
Now I think that I should've seen it come.
|
My heart sank when I read that letter.
|
It sank like a stone, it sank like a stone.
