I thought the wreck was over
|
I thought the fire was out
|
I thought the storm had passed
|
and I was safe at last
|
I thought thw wreck was over
|
but here she comes again
|
|
Livin' with her liked t'killed me
|
Living without her might as well
|
At first I thought I'd died and gone to heaven
|
In fact I had lived and gone to hell
|
|
I thought the wreck was over
|
I thought the fire was out
|
I thought the storm had passed
|
and I was safe at last
|
I thought thw wreck was over
|
but here she comes again
|
|
They'll tell you to expect the unexpected
|
But nobody ever tells you where it's hid
|
I can't tell you how many times she left me
|
I lost count the very first time that she did
|
|
I thought I was movin' fast and gettin' stronger
|
I thought the coast was clearer
|
'Till I looked into the mirror
|
And saw a set of skid marks gettin' longer
|
|
I thought the wreck was over
|
I thought the fire was out
|
I thought the storm had passed
|
and I was safe at last
|
I thought thw wreck was over
|
but here she comes again
|
