As I sat here listening to your sad song It seems now that you see that you were so wrong The day that you left me again to be free Yes you said you could do without me I cried and I pleaded with tears in my eyes And told you that someday you would realize The mistakes you were making so sorry you'd be But you said again you could do without me Remember when before the alter we stood The vows that you made meant that you would be good We'd always be together for rich or for poor But your love has grown cold that you didn't care anymore
