YOU LET ME DOWN AGAIN
You let me down, again
I can’t remember when
I ever felt so blue
I’ve had my share of men
And now I’ve lost my yen
And there’s nothing you can do
I walk through this forest
And I’m blinded by the trees
Still I hear your chorus
Of a thousand litanies
You let me down, again
I can’t remember when
I ever felt so blue
I’ve had my share of men
And now I’ve lost my yen
And there’s nothing you can do
Love is not your long suit
Trust is a scar on your soul
You buried my heart with the rest of the loot
Who was I to think I could make you whole?
You let me down, again
I can’t remember when
I ever felt so blue
I’ve had my share of men
And now I’ve lost my yen
And there’s nothing you can do
Nothing. Nothing. Nothing …
You can do!
