Some friends just told me that they saw you and that you asked about me
Howdy why this sudden interest for a long long time now you've been free

You caused our love to be a failure oh why did our lives be such fate
Through those years I loved you dearly but you loved me too little and too late
[ steel ]
They say you'd hid it that you'd come by and in your rhyme's a spark of gleam
How'd your new friends grow so boring and the wild side of life's not what it seems
Don't you remember what you told me that all your love had turned to hate
I guess it's better we not love again for you loved me too little and too late
