We took the long and steady road
And from the start you had a heart of gold, you broke the mold
I never thought you would decide
The grass was greener on the other side of love s divide
You were everything that I wanted and more
Now we can t go back where we started, never be like before
Darlin me and you, we had a strange arrangement
But you broke all the rules and I m through with playing the fool for love
Darlin yes it s true we had a grand engagement
But I can t stand by while you break my heart in two, oh
I ve got to be a man, baby I ve got to take a stand
So now we gone our separate ways
But in my heart I feel the burning flames of love s remains
Now I have to find somebody new
But all who dare will be compared to you
What can I do?
You were everything that I dreamed I would find
Now we can t go back where we started this is the end of the line
Darling me and you we had a strange arrangement
But you broke all the rules and I m through playing the fool for love
Darlin yes it s true we had a grand engagement
But I can t stand by while you break my heart in two, oh
I ve got to be a man, baby I ve got to take a stand
Me and you, we had a strange arrangement
But you broke all the rules and I m through playing the fool for love
Darlin yes it s true we had a grand engagement
But I can t stand by while you break my heart in two, no
I ve got to be a man, baby I ve got to take a stand
