That night, how I remember it so clearly
There was summer in the air
And fading twilight in the sky
For both of us to share
But I knew something wasn't right
'Cause when I looked into her eyes
I saw them staring right through mine
And then I realized
In a moment lost in time
When the tears filled both our eyes
She pulled the wool right over mine

And I thought "oh what a fool of me
Made with the simplest of lies"
And my heart believed every last word
Trust is an open wound begging for needle and thread
But that night she left me lying on the floor while I bled

It's such a shame for everything we used to know
And all the time we spent talk about the future
The seeds of every dream we used to share
Have been trampled down by a reckless heart

Which brings me back to the days
That followed that long night
After all the bitter tears were cried
And dawn had broke the spell
Of all that had transpired
With my broken heart in hand
I did my best to understand how
I could ever trust again

Better to never love than to have loved and lost it all

It's such a shame for everything we used to know
And all the time we spent talk about the future
The seeds of every dream we used to share
Have been trampled down by a reckless heart
