Lyrics
Well excuse me,
How long is forever
I thought it was till the end of time But 6 months down the road
You say you’re leavin’
I guess 6 months is forever in your mind
The Preacher said do you take
This man for your mate
To be yours in the good times & the bad
If I’d known how long you meant
I would’ve never bought I’d rent
That diamond that you said you had to have
Chorus
Solo on verse
I used to run and ramble
And I used to drink & gamble
I used to chase fast women & drink wine
Then you came and changed me
And some folks say you tamed me
But I just temporarily lost my mind
I guess the moral of this story
Is don’t be taken in
By pretty looks & words easily said
I hope I’ve learned my lesson
Cause I’m sure tired of guessin’
What’s goin on inside your pretty head
Now I thought things were good
I waited on you hand and foot
I treated you just like you were a queen
Now when I lay down at night
And I turn out that light
All that’s left of you is a bad dream
Chorus
