Stupid Boy

Well, she was precious like a flower

She grew wild, wild but innocent

A perfect prayer in a desperate hour

She was everything beautiful and different

Stupid boy, you can't fence that in

Stupid boy, it's like holding back the wind

She laid her heart and soul right in your hands

And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans

She never even knew she had a choice and that's what happens

When the only voice she hears is telling her she can't

Stupid boy

Stupid boy

So what made you think you could take a life

And just push it, push it around?

I guess to build yourself up so high

You had to take her and break her down

Well, she laid her heart and soul right in your hands

And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans

She never even knew she had a choice and that's what happens

When the only voice she hears is telling her she can't

You stupid boy

Oh, you always had to be right

And now you've lost the only thing

That ever made you feel alive

Well, she laid her heart and soul right in your hands

And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans

She never even knew she had a choice and that's what happens

When the only voice she hears is telling her she can't

You stupid boy

Oh, I'm the same old, same old stupid boy

It took a while for her to figure out she could run

But when she did, she was long gone, long gone

Ooh, she's gone

She's long gone

Mmm, yeah, she's gone

Yeah, oh

No one's ever gonna love me like she loved me

And she loved me, she loved me

God please, just let her know

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby

Yeah, I'm down on my knees

She's never coming back to me
