I Could Have Saved You the Time
JACK CLEMENT
You wanted to know that you could break my heart but I could have told you you could
You just had to see if I'd go to pieces but I could have told you I would
Just think of the time not to mention the trouble
That you threw away on a heart like mine
If you just have to prove that you could destroy me I could have saved you the time
[ steel ]
And so now you know that I can be foolish but I could have told you it's true
And so now you see that I have a glass heart but I could have told you I do
There may come a time you may run into trouble
You might find the need for a love like mine
If you're wondering which fool will be waiting for you I could have saved you the time
