[ Featuring the Lady Mercy Band ]
I felt it when your hands stretched out to mine
Felt it when our bodies were intertwined
Well I knew I would love you for all time
That's not the way it went and that's the way it goes
Demons stay when you leave
I'm left hear to burn down your memory
Well I knew you would love me for all time
But that's not the way it went and that's the way it goes
Faith has always been the foundation of belief
Trust is all that love ever needed to be
I put all my faith and trust in the words you said to me
But that's not the way it went and that's the way it goes
Nowhere to go and nothing to do
I'm getting acquainted with the ghost of you
What do I have left to choose
The taste of steel or ninety proof
Well I knew we would love for all time
I never thought you'd be anything but mine
Never thought I'd catch you hand in hand
With another man
But that's just the way it went and that's the way it goes
