From the minute I turned and laid my eyes on you, I had no eyes of my own
|
I was blind to the world, you were too good to be true
|
But you were something to see, so very young and alone
|
And I still don't believe the way you turned on me
|
Now where's the girl that I knew?
|
I gave you somewhere to live and then somebody to love
|
You gave me nothing but trouble, man, I've been such a fool
|
You gave me nothing at all, now let me give it to you
|
You taught me how to be cruel, now let me try it on you
|
How do you abuse me, let me count the ways
|
How many hours in how many days
|
How does it amuse you, let me count the pain
|
How many rules breaking how many games
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
How do you abuse me, let me count the ways
|
How many hours in how many days
|
How does it amuse you, let me count the pain
|
How many rules breaking how many games
|
You got your ass out of gear and your soul out of whack
|
Go on and take all your stuff, don't even bother to pack
|
In every way I want you out of my life
|
But I'll kill you if you don't come back, I'll kill you if you don't come back
|
|
In the pit of the night you used to pull me so close
|
And then you'd hold me so tight
|
And in the wink of an eye you used to give me it all
|
And with a kiss in the darkness you'd deliver the light
|
And in the pit of the night I hear you laughing so loud
|
I know you're laughing at me
|
Oh ain't it funny and sad the way I fell for your lies
|
The way I fell into love and then I begged to be free
|
You gave me nothing at all, now let me give it to you
|
You taught me how to be cruel, now let me try it on you
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Somebody bless all the girls in the sand on the beach
|
They're dreamin' of boys and staying just out of reach
|
Bless all the cheerleaders down on the track
|
They're glistening like diamonds with sweat on their backs
|
Bless all the girls in the gangs on the street
|
They're looking for danger and they're holding their peace
|
Bless all the girls staying late after school
|
They're playing with fire and oh they're playing it cool
|
And bless all the shy girls who're learning to dance
|
They stare in the mirror and they conjure romance
|
Bless all the girls who are always alone
|
They kneel down in prayer and they wait up by the phone
|
Bless all the homecoming queens of the night
|
They're looking for magic in gymnasium lights
|
And bless all the girls who know what love is about
|
They try not to cry and then they try to put out
|
|
And bless all the homecoming queens of the night
|
They're looking for magic in gymnasium lights
|
And bless all the girls who know what love is about
|
They try not to cry and then they try to put out
|
|
Somebody bless all these girls that I never have met
|
But damn you and curse you after all that you've done
|
You're the one girl I'll never forget
|
You're the one girl I'll never forget
|
Somebody bless all these girls and everything that they do
|
But damn me and curse me for still needing you
|
|
And I'll kill you if you don't come back
|
I'll kill you if you don't come back (repeats out)
|

I'll Kill You If You Don't Come Back
