[Verse 1]
I don't remember much about that night
But I'm pretty sure it rained the day I died
I think it rained, I think it rained
I'm pretty sure it rained the day I died

[Verse 2]
You and I were always closest friends
It's women that make enemies of men
A pretty face, a pretty face
A pretty face would one day do me in

[Verse 3]
Her eyes were like the winter where she goes
Holding secrets only winter knows
And winter knows, winter knows
The winter seen the wolves in women's clothes

[Verse 4]
She came to me in middle afternoon
We held each other close the whole night through
Love was blind, love was blind
I never saw her let you in the room

[Bridge]
Someone always wins and then they write a book
I sing my defense, fingering a different crook
[Verse 5]
A gunshot was the only word you said
And all of my defenses came out red
Love is red, love is red
She left with you, you left me lying dead

[Verse 6]
So I watched her as you put me in the dirt
She had my wallet tucked inside her skirt
And I went numb, I went numb
So I'm not dead if what you did don't hurt
