lyrics

I stayed out late last night
I was walking the streets all alone
All the stars where shining bright
I just hung my head and I just moaned

But it’s all over now
I decided as the morning came
How could I take you back
When you brought me so much shame

How could anyone play a trick like that
On someone they’d supposed to love?
I trusted that from the day we met
I would be the only one

But I found out about you
You had been bringing your friends Around to my house
After they’ve had you on my couch
You know they all left by the back door
I stayed out late last night
I woke up tonight at my friends
When they tried to question me
I didn’t try to pretend

I said, how can anyone
play a trick like that on someone they’re supposed to love?
I trusted that from the day we met
I would be the only one

But I found out about you
You had been bringing your friends around to my house
After they had you on my couch
You know they all left by the back door

I stayed out late last night
I stayed out late last night
I walked the street alone
