You had style, you had class
you had everything to make a love last
you had grace, you had charm
you had me hanging on your arm
when I found out you were a fake
you rared up and bit me like a snake
and I was ready to let go
and let all my feelings show.
Chorus:
Tell me why you wanna be so cold
why you wanna be so mean
you`ve gone and let your true colors show
you`re a perpetual blues machine.
We could`ve been just fine
if you`d have only been all mine
`cause I was for real, but you did not know
that you were steppin` on my heart
as you were walking out the door.
But now I know who you are
and it`s a damn good thing we didn`t get too far
`cause I`m not the one who`s right for you.
You need a man to do your rolling
like you want him to do.
Chorus
Now you`ve gone, and I`m glad
that we didn`t let it get too bad
you know I tried to make it go
but there was just no way to tell you so.
