Desiree

It's killin me to write the word goodbye
I've wadded it up and tossed it a thousand times
We both know the reason
There ain't nothin to explain
But I know that my leavin
Will spare us both the pain

Desiree, I can't hold you any longer
Desiree, You love his money more than me
Now that taxi's at the gate
I guess all that's left to say
Is in teardrops at the bottom of the page
I love you Desiree

It'd be easier to leave if I were mad
But it's hard to lose the best you'll ever have
And to write this note to you
Was the hardest thing you do
But not as hard as bein a poor boy
Who can't afford a girl like you

Desiree, I can't hold you any longer
Desiree, You love his money more than me
Now that taxi's at the gate
I guess all that's left to say
Is in teardrops at the bottom of the page
I love you Desiree

Desiree, I can't hold you any longer
Desiree, You love his money more than me
Now that taxi's at the gate
I guess all that's left to say
Is in teardrops at the bottom of the page
I love you Desiree

God, I love you, Desiree
I just can't take it anymore
I won't be around for your goodbye
I won't be around for your goodbye
Love his money more than me
I won't be around for your goodbye
Love his money more than me
I won't be around for your goodbye
Oh, you love his money and you love it more than me
I won't be around for your goodbye

Yeah, I was just a fool who couldn't see
I won't be around for your goodbye
Yeah, you love his money and you love it more than me
