[Verse 1]
You never learned nothin' from those days
Sippin' on your riches, man, pissin' it all away
I feel for you because you're carryin' on the flame
But don't turn, please, don't give it all away

[Verse 2]
I never thought I'd end up the richer man
You go into the bank, and me holding her hand
I never thought love would come smack you on your face
But don't turn, please, don't give it all away

[Bridge]
And every time that I see conflict in the East
There's angry shadows in their minds, chasin' us 'round the corner
And every time that I see conflict in the East
There's angry shadows in their minds, chasin' us 'round the corner

[Verse 3]
I never thought I'd end up the richer man
You go into the bank, and me holding her hand
I never thought love would come smack you on your face
But don't turn, please, don't give it all away
