If I had a penny 
For every time I caught you
Undressing me with your eyes
I'd be a rich one and then 
I could prove all my senses 
Were real all along
You wanted me too

Though now you laugh 
And call me a fool
I know you wanted me too
Before she got to you

If I could remember 
All the things you used to say 
When we were left alone
I'd have a book of sonnets 
So inspired
All the muses would cringe 
At your denial
At how you wanted me too

Though now you laugh 
And call me a fool
I know you wanted me too
Before she got to you

Before she got to you
I would say 
That we were something special 
To behold
But now it's over, all over

before she came barging through
We were prime 
To make the kind of love
As scarce as four leaf clover

Now, I'm a bit confused
'Cause what I felt 
I thought was true
Did she barge in 
And steal your heart away?
Or did you know 
From the first day
I was just someone to play?
If so, damn that's cold

Before she got to you
I would say 
That we were something special 
To behold
But now it's over, all over

Before she came barging through
We were prime 
To make the kind of love
As scarce as four leaf clover

If I could understand 
What you have found in her
More than you 
Could have had with me
I'd finally understand a mind
As twisted as yours 
Must be for you to go
Just when you wanted me too

Though now you laugh 
And call me a fool
I know you wanted me too
What kind of spell 
Has she put on you?
I know you wanted me too
Before she got to you
Before she got to you
