Should’ve seen her coming from a mile away It was the fire that she had within I saw Now all I have is blackened days Yeah she took me down the hard way
All I could want Everything I hoped for No way I could be blind Here it comes again Same old story every time
Oooo Lord How long?
Fallen the leaves are grey Well I tried and tried to get her on the phone ‘Cause I’m sick and tired of being all alone Well I played her game I got a loosing hand Yeah, she dropped me short of the Promised Land
Oooo Lord How long? Fallen the leaves are grey What was so wrong? How can it be?
Slipping – sliding – moving back & forth Gotta leave this town – gonna head up north She’s a stone cold lover and it’s easy to see Hard luck woman made a fool out of me
Oooo Lord How long? Fallen the leaves are grey What was so wrong? How can it be? Fallen the love Fallen the love we had
