I was 17 and i thought you were one in a million

I never dreamed anyone (would) ever take you away

And at 21 tied the knot with a holy union

But i never thought i'd live to regret that day



* you put a scar on my heart i can't cover up and hide

I'm on the ropes in the corner with no fighter left inside

** under the heel of a stranger he holds you captive by his charms

I saw the signs but not the danger now he's the hero in your arms



Every night you go out tell me its with a friend

You come back late know you've seen him again

And at 29 i realize the dreaming has to end

Although i've lost your love still the ghost remains



* repeat

** repeat

Oh yeah,



(instrumental break ) ** repeat 2.75 more times
