I Was in Love with You

You’re standing in the doorway

Lit up like a devil’s fire

I’d like to take my fortune and run

Run for my life

What brought us together

I still can’t say

All I want to do

Is get away

And all that we’ve been through

I still can’t believe that it’s true

I was in love with you

I walk down Third Street

Just to forget your face

But every time I turned a corner

You got in my way

Diamonds and quicksand

Shadows in the rain

Faces in this dusty hallway

Breathing in the pain

And all that we’ve been through

I still can’t believe it’s true

I was in love with you

I was in love, you were misunderstood

Now our little girl is standing

With a strangers look

I can’t begin to think

How can I tell her the truth

In this heartbreak world nothing’s

Written in blood

Nothing’s made of steel

Well brains and looks

You got it all

With a love like ours

These courthouse walls will never fall

There’s staleness in the air

Teardrops on the floor

Tears of sadness mixed with

Tears of joy

And all that we’ve been through

I still can’t believe that it’s true

I was in love with you

And all that we’ve been through

I still can’t believe that it’s true

I was in love with you
