Once upon a lonely time

She swore she'd never let you down

You held her tight without a care in mind

While she did her runnin' 'round

At first you wouldn't face the truth

You loved her too much to let go

And though the story had to end

You wanna be her fool again

Friend there's something you should know



She'll have you back

Back to drinkin' in no time

Back to walkin' on your knees

Boy open up your eyes and see the light

Some things just aren't meant to be

I understand how she can get to you

'Cause she's made more than one man blind

So try and face the cold hard fact

She would gladly have you back

Back to drinkin' in no time



It just don't make no sense to me

To play a game you'll never win

You asked me here for my advice

You say she wouldn't break you twice

Friend you'd better think again



She'll have you back

Back to drinkin' in no time

Back to walkin' on your knees

Boy open up your eyes and see the light

Some things just aren't meant to be

I understand how she can get to you

'Cause she's made more than one man blind

So try and face the cold hard fact

She would gladly have you back

Back to drinkin' in no time

So try and face the cold hard fact

She would gladly have you back

Back to drinkin' in no time
