I wasted time and money honey treating you like a queen
Might as well have just thrown matches at a tank of gasoline
Well it all went up in a ball of flames yeah girl, you torched me good
I got burned and learned that I loved you more than I should

{Chorus}
My heart said a long time ago buddy tuck your tail and run
‘Cause it ain’t love when you’re stuck on the wrong end of the gun
Well you put your finger on that trigger and you shot me where I stood
I found out the hard way I loved you more than I should

Curse the man that made the sweet perfume that cast the spell
Curse the night that made us kiss beneath the star that fell
Curse the man before me didn’t warn me when he could
Curse me most of all for loving you more than I should

{Chorus}
My heart said a long time ago buddy tuck your tail and run
‘Cause it ain’t love when you’re stuck on the wrong end of the gun
Well you put your finger on that trigger and you shot me where I stood
I found out the hard way I loved you more than I should

Last night I found myself inside the strangest sweetest dream
You were standing arms wide open right in front of me
The closer I moved toward you the further away you stood
I woke up and I whispered I loved you more than I should
They’ll write on my gravestone I loved you more than I should
