there goes my old girlfriend
there's another diamond ring
and all those late night promises
i guess
they don't mean a thing
so baby what's the story
did you find another man
is it easy to sleep
in the bed that we made
when you don't look back
i guess the feelings start to
fade away
i used to feel your fire
but now it's cold inside
and you're back on the street
like you didn't miss a beat yeah
tell me what it takes
to let you go
tell me how the pain's
supposed to go
tell me how it is
that you can sleep
in the night
without thinking you lost
everything that was good
in your life to the toss
of the dice
tell me what it takes
to let you go
yeah
girl before i met you
i was f i n e fine
but your love made me a prisoner
yeah my heart's been doing time
you spent me up like money
then you hung me out to dry
it was easy to keep
all your lies in disguise
cause you had me in deep
with the devil in your eyes
tell me what it takes
to let you go
tell me how the pain's
supposed to go
tell me how it is
that you can sleep
in the night
without thinking you lost
everything that was good
in your life to the toss
of the dice
tell me what it takes
to let you go
guitar
tell me that you're happy
that you're on your own
yeah yeah yeah
tell me that it's better
when you're all alone
tell me that your body
doesn't miss my touch
tell me that my loving
didn't mean that much
tell me you ain't dying
when you're cryin'for me
tell me what it takes
to let you go
tell me how the pain's
supposed to go
tell me how it is
that you can sleep
in the night
