"The Lady That Lived Here Before" lyrics

The Lady That Lived Here Before

It's over between us
Yes, I know it's true
I can never be anything
That you want me to

And no matter how you beg
I'll walk out that door
Cause I can't live up to the lady
That lived here before

It seems that I have
Been wasting my time
As long as she's with us
You'll never be mine

And I know that you love her
And it hurts so much more
Cause I can't live up to the lady
That lived here before

She's lying between us
In our bed each night
And I wonder
If you think of her
Whеn you hold me tight

The going's getting roughеr
I can't take anymore
And I can't live up to the lady
That lived here before

She's lying between us
In our bed each night
And I wonder
If you think of her
Whеn you hold me tight

The going's getting roughеr
And I can't take anymore
And I can't live up to the lady
That lived here before
