You kept her blue-eyed gaze
You kept her superstition
You kept her wallflower ways
You kept her inhibitions, oh now
Wait for you, you thought she would
She seemed to play the part
But damn you boy, you misunderstood
You can't play with her heart, no you can't play with her heart
You kept her at a distance
You kept her at arm's length
You kept her on hopes and wishes
You kept her in the bank
Oh, now, wait for you, you thought she would
She seemed to play the part
But damn you boy, you misunderstood
You can't reserve her heart, no you can't reserve her heart
And now it's, now it's, over
Now it's, now it's
Goddamn you boy you don't understand
Well, you just broke her heart
That f*cking pride you carry with you
Only death will make it part, only death with make it part
And now it's, now it's, over
And now it's, now it's, over
And now it's, now it's
