Lyrics
She messed it up for the rest of us baby
That girl who ran away with your heart
Should?ve known better when I heard all about her
Cause we were doomed, we were doomed from the start
You let me in your life, but only on your terms
You won?t make me your wife, cause you?re so burned
You think the way it was, should be the way it is
You?re thinking about all the things you miss
I bet you?re thinking of her kiss
Cause she messed it up for the rest of us baby
That girl who ran away with your heart
Shoulda known better, when I heard all about her
We were doomed, We were doomed from the start
You act as if she never ever could do wrong
Her lies all fade away as days go on
I can never be that flighty beauty queen
You try to trash my self esteem
Well you?re living in a dream
Cause she messed it up for the rest of us baby
That girl who ran away with your heart
Shoulda known better, when I heard all about her
We were doomed, We were doomed from the start
Her memory plays a trick on you my darlin all the time
We?re living with a ghost of what I thought would all be mine
Sometimes you?ve got to cut your losses and just walk away
That day would be today
Chorus
