I’ve been waiting for you to come
Staring out at the setting sun
You’ve been running ’round again
With that boy you call your friend
And it’s driving me insane
Does he make you say his name?
And you can’t get it off your tongue
Little girl, you are not so young
Does it hurt when you lie to me
If you’d asked, I would set you free
But the time to forgive is gone
The day has passed, the night has come
Ain’t you worried what I’ll do?
And that boy should worry, too
Can you face me for what you’ve done?
Little girl, you are not so young
Oh, is he ready to die for you, baby?
Naw, but you know I was
I’m fond of living but I would have given
It all for the girl I love
Oh, is he ready to die for you, baby?
Now that the deed is done
I’m just waiting for night and the fading
Light of the setting sun
Tell me when did I lose your love?
Was it him you were thinking of
All those nights when you made me swoon
Making love beneath the moon?
Were you dreaming of his touch?
When you couldn’t get enough
Was there truth in the songs you sung?
Little girl, you’re not so young
Well, I could never betray your love
You had me, heart and soul
You might never have known it, girl
But I was all yours
I know I’ll never reclaim your love
But that’s just how it goes
I ain’t the person I was
This morning when the sun rose
Well, I could never betray your love
You had me, heart and soul
You might never have known it, girl
But I was all yours
I know I’ll never reclaim your love
But that’s just how it goes
I ain’t the person I was
This morning when the sun rose
I know I’ll never replace your love
And that’s as hard as it gets
So I’ll be taking a life
This evening when the sun sets
