Lyrics
Jude
The day our worlds collided on Sycamore and Third,
He promised me forever and I took him on his word.
But I didn?t see it coming? the riddles in his eyes.
He stripped away my confidence and left me high and dry.
What in the world happened to me? How did I lose myself so eagerly?
When I fell for Jude and no one could pick me up;
I screamed for Jude and no one heard a sound, my intuition let me down.
He said he loved; what an easy girl I was to play.
He ran up all my credit cards while he sipped Courvoisier.
What a difference a rotten day makes?the day he said goodbye.
I crumpled up his letters and I tossed them in the fire.
What in the world happened to me? Why was I taken in so easily?
When I fell for Jude and no one could pick me up;
I screamed for Jude and no one heard a sound, my face was buried in the ground.
Jude!
He could charm me and disarm me like no other could;
I, it seemed, was helpless in his hands.
What in the world happened to me? He was oozing with duplicity,
And I couldn?t see the forest for the trees.
Where do I go? Where do I hide? How do I fill this hole inside?
Who was the face inside the mirror? Who was that girl inside my mirror?
When I fell for Jude and no one could pick me up;
I screamed for Jude and no one heard a sound?a desperation so profound;
No one heard a word; my compromise was so absurd. Jude!
