| There ought to be a way,
|
| For us to learn to live as one,
|
| But the vicious games you play,
|
| Well, they’re not my idea of fun.
|
| A dozen times you lied,
|
| A dozen times I took you back,
|
| Always hoping that you’d change,
|
| But I must face the facts,
|
| Because there you go again.
|
| I am as trusting as a child,
|
| A helpless fool at your command,
|
| You can be so savage and so wild,
|
| Or maybe more like underhand.
|
| When the beast is gone,
|
| The gentle soul inside you stirs,
|
| But I know it won’t be long,
|
| Before the beast returns.
|
| And there you go again,
|
| But I’m out of my mind,
|
| You hurt me so again,
|
| And now you’re out of my mind,
|
| And there you go again, a real fairweather friend.
|
| So, I'm leaving you today,
|
| A sadder but a wiser man,
|
| It don’t matter what you say,
|
| I’ve taken all I can.
|
| And there you go again,
|
| But I’ve made up my mind,
|
| You won’t hurt me so again,
|
| Because you’re out of my mind,
|
| And there you go again,
|
| But I’ve made up my mind.
|
| And so the story ends, and now you’re out of my mind.
|
| There you go again, this broken heart will mend,
|
| There you go again,
|
| Farewell fairweather friend,
|
| Goodbye. |
