Blue Rodeo
It Makes Me Wonder
[Verse 1]
Call me a liar, a coward and a cheat
And in my defense, what case could I possibly make?
And how could I deny a heart so tender and sweet?
How could I betray a love so complete?
Well it's hard to explain, the troubles that I've made
Lucky is the man who learns from his mistakes

[Verse 2]
There is little left for the man who hesitates
And tell me what is gained by those who always take
So here's what's left of my heart, yeah, it's all torn apart
You say your hands are tied and it's time to say goodbye

[Chorus]
Still it makes me wonder
And it makes me cry
Yes, it makes me wonder
And it makes me cry
How the best things are won with sacrifice

[Instrumental Break]

[Interlude]
Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 3]
I can't stand the sight of my own reflection, I just don't like what I see
All I ever hear you saying to me is that I'm not the man that I used to be
So take the veil from your eyes, this is who I've always been
I know it's not a pretty sight, yeah, I tried but I failed

[Chorus]
Still it makes me wonder
And it makes me cry
Yes, it makes me wonder
And it makes me cry
Yes, it makes me wonder
And it makes me cry
How the best things are won with sacrifice
Sacrifice, sacrifice. sacrifice
