The Past And The Present Lyrics

maybe he was wrong
but then she pulled em all along
he was the best she had
even right away that wasn't much
and for the day he wasn't good or bad
she asked me for a dance
'And yes I'd love to but I can't,' was what I meant to say
if all the words came out
I was already at her house
I guess I have to stay

leave it
why don't you leave it
I can't believe it
it's been so loooong
tell me
why won't you tell me
it's just as well
these days are gooone

'He would never know'
and though 'I would,' she swears, 'he won't'
It was a small mistake,'
'really, can't blame me'
but I'm better
she said, 'He has something else to say'
'Promise is revenge
I shud have tried to make amends
and we should end this here
and I'd apoligize but its too late and I know why
this is goodbye my dear '
leave it
why don't you leave it
I can't believe it
it's been so loooong
tell me
why won't you tell me
it's just as well
these days are gooone
everyday now she fights
memories
when she shuts her eyes
since it helps her sleep
she stays up all night long
forgetting memories with me
I tried to but it rung
that little girl's just so much fun
God help me if it's good
It's nothing of the sort
she'll roll the base bed(?) just for sport
that's sweet but nothing wrong

leave it
why don't you leave it
I can't believe it
it's been so loooong
tell me
why won't you tell me
it's just as well
these days are gooone
