She was sweet
Oh, she was sweet as honey
Until everything we had turned so ugly
Yes, she was mean
Mean, but she was mine
And it's a shame I had to put out that fire
But as my debutant was dancing in my doorway
She was just two steps from swinging off her stage
And though I was not a fan of all her gaming
I just was never good at tracking anyway
But now all her little bread crumbs probably washed out in the rain
And since I couldn't track her down
I had to go my separate way
And I'm not to talk her into dreaming now
Not while she was lying wide awake
She was sweet
She was sweet as honey
Until everything we had turned so ugly
Yes, she was mean
Mean, but she was mine
And it's a shame I had to put out that fire
Everything has just kept moving
Even good times, I confess
There was a time I'd say I knew you
But now the time has come to put that all to rest
But I'll be working on it
Can't change a thing
Just a moment
Missed it by a blink
Don't need wild eye
Just to be seen
Yeah I'll forget about it
Just a dream
Well, she was sweet
She was sweet as honey
Until everything we had turned so ugly
Yes, she was mean
Mean, but she was mine
And it's a shame I had to put out that fire
