Scarlet Letter
I came home late last night. Slowly I walked in
My life was changed forever. It would never be the same again
Over on the table I found a little note
I knew I had to read it. This is what she wrote
You ask me if I love you? You know I really do
but, there's something I must tell you that'll be the end of me and you
You mustn't think you failed me when you hear the words I have to say
My poor heart will fall apart when you turn and walk away
You've always been there for me, so, there's no one else to blame
but, you don't need no scarlet letter hanging on your name
Take away these teardrops from this letter that I read
I can't believe she told me a stranger turned her head
I'd trade away tomorrow for one single yesterday
There's so much I need to tell her. So much I need to say
Nights alone without me when I wasn't there to hold
made love that lasts forever bitter, dark, and cold
There's no way I can be there, and now she's made me see
a woman lives for loving and I don't wanna be set free
So, here I am without her and I don't know what to do
Gone away forever she tore my world in two
You can pick up smaller pieces scattered on the ground
but, you can't put together love that can't be found
It's that same ole lost love story, every one is still the same
but, you don't need no scarlet letter hanging on your name
No, you don't need no scarlet letter hanging on your name
