lyrics

Loving you, it wasn’t the same
Something was wrong
But that something I could not name
I prayed to God my heart it would change
The choices you made, you cannot undo
Doesn’t work that way

I ain’t got much time for regret
I was pacing the floor, retracing my every step
You’re not a gambler at heart, you forget
The look in your eyes, the secrets and lies
Better left unsaid

Oh, these memories
They’re hammering my head
Or is it the liquor I shouldn’t have had
A house up in flames
Pointing fingers and naming names
Tell me, how is it cheating when you’ve done the leaving
We’ve given up on us

Pushed me away every time
The gap grows wide
A woman can’t, a woman can’t live that way
Yours is a losing game
You ain’t no, you ain’t no do right man

A house up in flames
Pointin’ fingers and namin’ names
Tell me how is it cheatin’ when you’ve done the leavin’
We’ve given up on us

Tell me how is it cheatin’ when you’d done the leavin’
We’ve given up on us
