L. ThomasD. Walker

I don't want your roses

It's too late to sweet talk now

No use you coming round no more

Cause this old flame went out

You left me alone and going out of my head

But a woman left needing more

Can be so easily mislead

Chorus:

You just left me lonely

You just left me lonely for so long

A woman like me can't be left waiting

Waiting on a man forever gone

So much promise in your words

So much fire in your eyes

So much hunger when you kissed me

back then

But you let love fall from oh so high

You left me needing more

And someone new came along

And an empty heart, an empty heart

Cannot be that strong

Repeat chorus

I hear a different drummer now

I'm dancing to a different beat

I'll find a man who will stay at home for me

And never play me cheap

Your love became a lesson

Just a sad memory

So I'll let go of the dreams

I had for you and me

Repeat chorus
