Like a baby goes for candy,
that's the way I went for you
It's a wonder I'm still living
after all you've put me through
It would take a modern miracle
to make things turn out right
and happiness is out of sight
Oh, the heartaches have just started
And the worst is yet to come
The tears have started fallin'
We've got true love on the run
Up to now you've had me hangin'
But now you've run out of rope
And when you see the back
You'll know I've run out of hope
I've done everything I could
to save this love affair of ours
Took you to the finest places,
wined and dined you for the hour
Pet you caviar and champagne,
that's the best that I could do
But the best I had to offer
wasn't good enough for you
Oh, the heartaches have just started
and the worst is yet to come
The tears have started falling,
we've got true love on the run
Up to now you've had me hanging,
but now you've run out of rope
An d when you see the back
you'll know I've run out of hope
