You killed the love that was once so strong With no regret to what you did wrong Should I stay and fight? Can we make this right? You looked through me like an open door Do I exist to you anymore? 'Cause when I'm talking to you There's someone else that you're hearing I gave you all the love I had And I almost gave you one more chance Then you put one in the chamber And shot my heart of glass This time will be the last You've played your game, used me like a pawn Check mate, you're done and then you were gone Did I moved too fast? I thought we would last Now that you're through, I can't feel your soul Where there was love lies an empty hole 'Cause when I make love to you It's else that you're feeling I gave you all the love I had And I almost gave you one more chance Then you put one in the chamber And shot my heart of glass This time will be the last I gave you all the love I had And I almost gave you one more chance Then you put one in the chamber And shot my heart of glass This time will be the last For so many nights I've been standing at the wall Blind folded with cigarette Waiting for the fall I gave you all the love I had And I almost gave you one more chance Then you put one in the chamber And shot my heart of glass This time will be the last I gave you all the love I had And I almost gave you one more chance Then you put one in the chamber And shot my heart of glass This time will be the last I gave you all the love I had And I almost gave you one more chance Then you put one in the chamber And shot my heart of glass This time will be the last
