Chorus:
|
You'll be sorry you asked me the reason
|
That she's not here with me tonight
|
And I know you were probably just acting polite
|
But you'll be sorry you ever asked why
|
|
We started having problems in August last year
|
So things had been kinda rough for quite awhile
|
And you know how you think it'll work itself out
|
Well, mister that thought's wrong by a long, long mile
|
|
Chorus:
|
You'll be sorry you asked me the reason
|
That she's not here with me tonight
|
And I know you were probably just acting polite
|
But you'll be sorry you ever asked why
|
|
I mighta, shoulda seen that we were drifting apart
|
But I was in what I guess you'd call denial
|
And I always heard them say that you're the last one to know
|
Well buddy I was last by a long, long while
|
|
Chorus:
|
You'll be sorry you asked me the reason
|
That she's not here with me tonight
|
And I know you were probably just acting polite
|
But you'll be sorry you ever asked why
|
|
Okay we both have a tendency to overreact
|
So I can't really tell you who's at fault
|
But there were certain third parties, well her sister for one
|
That helped bring out reconciling to a drop-dead halt
|
|
Chorus:
|
Now aren't you sorry you asked me the reason
|
That she's not here with me tonight
|
And I know you were probably just acting polite
|
But I'm sure sorry you ever asked why
|
Aren't you sorry you ever asked why
|
I'm sure sorry you ever asked why
|
|
Did I tell you that she tried to have me locked out of the house
|
I had to go hire a lawyer and all
|
But I know that was mostly her family's idea
|
I could her them tell her what to say every time I called
|
