When I first met you, I was a dreamer

I didn't let nothing stand in my way,

I was looking for another soul to understand me

But you weren't wild enough for me

CHORUS

Goodbye lady, wish you could save me tonight

I was so wrong, I waited too long

I didn't know how to treat you right

As I wandered, across this great land

Looking for a girl to hold out her hand

The days got longer, the nights got harder

I started searching for the end

CHORUS

So I called you, when I was passing through

I asked you out for the night

She said sorry, I just can't see you

You know it just wouldn't be right

CHORUS
