The Love I'm Bound to Lose Lyrics

You told me that I was the only one that you love

I fell for you right from the start

But I was naïve in the ways of deceit

When I gave you the key to my heart

I've been up, I've been down

I've been every which way you choose

If I had a dime every time you lied

I'd be walking in solid gold shoes

Instead of talking about the love I'm bound to lose

I bought you a house in a nice part of town

Thinking my investment would soar

But when I come over you are nowhere around

And the bank is knocking at the door

I've been up, I've been down

I've been every which way you choose

If I had a dime every time you lied

I'd be walking in solid gold shoes

Instead of talking about the love I'm bound to lose

I bought you a car so I could drive you around

It had a shiny coat of red paint

Well the engine was a lemon: when I went down the hill

I could not get it back up again (oh no)

I've been up, I've been down

I've been every which way you choose

If I had a dime every time you lied

I'd be walking in solid gold shoes

Instead of talking about the love I'm bound to lose
