Away She Went

Saw her for a total of twenty one days
I’ll never know what went wrong
Did my breath smell bad, was my head too short?
My feelings just too long?

Guess I’ll never know why she left, or why she could never stay
She won’t give me an answer, feels like I’ve just been played

Everything bad about my time with you
I had truth in my head, I’ve got the blues
After all the cards I made, all the letters I sent
She said that’s the way it goes, and away she went

I saw her with a friend of mine
They were up in arms
What does he have that I don’t have
Except money, looks, and charm?

Guess she’s the kind of person
That has to leave another alone
Seeing as there’s no other kind
At least not one I’ve known

Everything bad about my time with you
I had truth in my head, I’ve got the blues
After all the cards I made, all the letters I sent
She said that’s the way it goes, and away she went

Ask her how she said I looked, and what she really meant
Ask her how she said I looked, and what she really meant
She that’s the way it goes
That’s the way it goes
That’s the way it goes, and away she went
After all the cards I made, all the letters I sent
She said that’s the way it goes, and away she went
