You can't make a woman stay, but you can make her want to leave That's what I did I couldn't make it real, I could only make believe And that's what I did I knew that I was driving a runaway train But I just laid into the throttle until I couldn't feel the pain And I kept breathing in the fumes until I made myself insane That's what I did She pretended she was something she'd never really be That's what she did No good man could ever love her, so she wound up letting me That's what she did She pulled me in and held me 'til I felt like I belonged Then she kicked me to the curb and said, "It's time to move along" She left me crying like a baby in the cold, gray light of dawn That's what she did Yeah, she left me twisting in the wind But I'm still praying she'll come back again I lost myself the first time she whispered in my ear That's what I did She burned me down to nothing and then she disappeared That's what she did I should have seen it coming, should have known it from the start You can't count on love forever when you love with broken hearts We lit the fuse and stood back and blew it all apart That's what we did Yeah, she left me twisting in the wind And I don't think she's coming back again
