Baby, I guess you know my story
Baby, I guess you've heard my side
Seems I've traded love for glory
But I'm still not satisfied
Livin' all the years
All the cries and cheers
Don't amount to much more than pride
Take my love for you, take tomorrow too
There's not much left inside
How we laughed when we first knew love
Singing dum de lum de lie
I taught you how to see light through love
And I taught you how to fly
Though I must've known
How easily love is thrown
I took some chances, I don't know why
There's not much you can do
Wish that I'd been true
Darlin' so do I
You better hold out
Go on and hold out
Go ahead and hold out
What ya know love can be
Move on and hold out
Don't let your love get sold out
Cause anyone that knows about it
Babe that's me
Dry your eyes
Can't forget the way I lied
Time has seen you grow
Ya lived your life alone
Though ya tried and tried
Ya cried and cried
