I thought I saw and angel calling me across the yard
...
she said baby, it's been real, but now I'm gone
...
I should've known much better, you can't tame something that wild
...
when I asked her if she loved me she just smiled
...
but it's my fault, I don't care
I can't hate you if you're not here
once you go, never ever turn around
...
I have sacrificed, I have burned
oh, you gotta live before you learrn
but I wanted the truth, and sometimes the truth hurts
...
and my angel with her dirty wings
she used to make me smile
she kept all of her secrets locked inside
...
in a place I could not reach her
though I tried with all my might
and when I begged for something real she said goodbye
...
and it's my fault, I don't care
I can't hate you if you're not here
once you go, never ever turn around
...
I have sacrificed, and I've burned
oh, you gotta live before you learn
and I wanted the truth, but sometimes the truth hurts
...
and I am sure I'll be just fine
if I remember she wasn't ever mine
and I am sure I'll be just fine
if I remember she wasn't ever mine
...
and the truth about the two of us is we don't make no sense
...
when we made love our love was just pretend
...
and now I'm trying to forget her
but I feel her in my bones
and I wonder if she thinks of me at all
...
but it's my fault, I don't care
I can't hate you if you're not here
once you go, never ever turn around
...
I have sacrificed, I have burned
oh, you gotta live before you learrn
but I wanted the truth, and sometimes the truth hurts
...
and I wanted the truth, but sometimes the truth hurts
...
