You found your greener pastures in a mansion on the hill

With a flashy foreign car to drive and lots of time to kill

Now my mind keeps on remembering the days of me and you

But when we were down to nothing, nothin' sure looked good on you.

You said you needed simple things that I had plenty of

And through the days of dark and rain we could always live on love

With his style in life he lured you and you could not refuse

But when we were down to nothin', nothin' sure looked so good on you.

When you honeymooned in Paris it was carried on the news

And I heard you laughed your cares away on a Caribbean cruise

You were always one for dreamin', now your dreams can all come true

But when we were down to nothin', nothin' sure looked good on you



You said you needed simple things that I had plenty of

And through the days of dark and rain we could always live on love

With his style in life he lured you and you could not refuse

But when we were down to nothin', nothin' sure looked so good on you.
