Sweet Noose Songtext

You can't tell me I didn't move you
I give everyone the right to choose
But all your games will come back to play you
When you see that I'm somebody else's noose

And the coffee got blacker
As the rest of them
Start talking and it came out
From all over town
That you just shake hands
And walk away
Are you a lesson, baby
In what a life like this will do
I think you are
And I've shame, shame, shame
Cause I like it any way

You can't tell me I didn't move you
I give everyone the right to choose
But all your games will come back to play you When you see that I'm somebody else's noose

How many hands have you shaken
How many years have blown by
'Till the rest of us get wise
And your fountain of youth, it runs dry
How many long and lonely glances
Of yours will follow a last goodbye
When she's somebody else's noose
