You took out that money that your momma had saved She told me she kept it for running away Oh my, fortunes can change You've picked up some tricks that you learnt on your way For fear you'd be lonely if you never changed Oh my, have you lost your faith? We landed on rocks and that's partly to blame We wandered the landscape in this unbearable pain Oh my, your fortune can change At least we agree that we've wasted our time We'll give up the hope that we'll meet down the line Better off measured in coffee than wine I'll think on it fondly now the truth can be told Some love is ancient and it lives on in your soul A fortune that never grows old You've spent all that money that your momma had saved Told me she kept it for running away Never quite found the right way to say I'm sorry, my darling, my mind it has been changed Release me from this unbearable pain And so ends a story I had hoped to change I had to release us from this unbearable pain And promise we won't come here again
