More Fool You

I held the rope so tightly

As she climbed

Down from her room

We said we'd make our getaway

Underneath the moon

I always will remember

The night that we left home

And the words of warning

Ringing in my ears

More fool you, more fool me ...

New job, new friends and a family

In a house on the sunny side

We played on the wheel of fortune

But it was me that took the ride

It didn't work between us

I had to give it all away

And in the end I knew it had to be

If I've told you once

Then I've told you twice

But I'll tell you once again

Now she's taken away

Most everything

And I've lost my only friend
