Time is runnin' out
|
Friends are too
|
The word is getting' out
|
It's all bad news
|
|
Scoundrels know my whereabouts
|
They recognize these pointy shoes
|
That's the last time
|
I turn my back on you
|
|
A friendly little game of cards
|
Aces wild
|
Your little life was just so hard
|
You had to act like a child
|
I recognize the queen of hearts
|
When she's sittin' in plain view
|
That's the last time
|
I turn my back on you
|
|
That's the last time
|
I turn my back on you
|
I kept waiting for a sign
|
That we could push it trough
|
There's a first time for everything
|
It was long overdue
|
That's the last time
|
I turn my back on you
|
|
I spent a lot of money
|
I spent a lot of time
|
Just to hear you call me honey
|
Sends little shivers up my spine
|
|
But after while it isn't funny
|
This twenty paces thing we do
|
So that's the last time
|
I turn my back on you
|
