Here is a story 'bout a boy and a girl
She woke up one morning felt alone in this world
Despite the love for her
He couldn't keep her from leaving again
She had to do it
She cried in the nights, he brought her flowers in the daytime
She tried and she tried to forget the past and all her past crimes
Despite the love for her
He couldn't keep her from leaving again
She had to do it
How could you shoot a good man down and leave without mourning?
Broken-hearted on the ground, like the others before him
Her burden heavy as a rock, ain't nobody gonna stop her
Go ahead and walk alone, and regret it some elsewhere
He cried in the nights, she got no flowers in the daytime
He gave up the fight while she was out committing new crimes
Despite the love for her
He couldn't keep her from leaving again
She had to do it
How could you shoot a good man down and leave without mourning?
Brokenhearted on the ground, like the others before him
Her burden heavy as a rock, ain't nobody gonna stop her
Go ahead and walk alone, and regret it some elsewhere
Her burden heavy as a rock, ain't nobody gonna stop her
Go ahead and walk alone, and regret it some elsewhere
