Well we've loved and we’ve lost
And at such a cost
And it seems you made a fool of me
But that's the coin I tossed

You've got me wrapped around your finger
I’m at your beck and call
I'm obliged to let you use me
But you don't care at all

You're so pretty
You're like a vision oh my lord
And you don't hide it
Even though you're modest with your words
And now I'm crying
’cause I’m the fool who chased you here
And if I said I loved you, you wouldn't even hear
And if I died right now you wouldn’t even shed a tear

Well I chased you down to San Antone
But you weren't at home
Your mama had enough of you
So she sent you off alone

Up in Austin where I found you
Living in your car
Where's your boyfriend when you need him
Did he travel far

Whisper in my ear your excited invitations
About all the fun you're having and wishing I was here
Lead me down the path of misguided expectations
I thought I’d get to have you but now I'm flying home alone

Oh, what a fool you made me

You're so pretty
You're like a vision oh my lord
And you don't hide it
Even though you're modest with your words
And now I'm crying
'cause I'm the fool who chased you here
And if I said I loved you, you wouldn't even hear
And if I died right now you wouldn't even shed a tear
