Well he took the sunshine/ Out of your sky
He took the sparkle/ Out of your eye
He left you torn down/ Tattered and blue
Goddamn that man done made a mess of you
Goddamn that man done made a mess of you
You had the lightnin'/ Yeah you were on fire
You had the thunder/ A queen of desire
You had me knocked out/ The moment I saw you
And now a spent rag doll is all he left of you
Yeah a spent rag doll is all he left of you
Well come on back/ Don't you sink into depression
Come back/ Baby roll away the stone
Come back/ Let me make a little confession
I'll be here waiting for you when you're over being alone
Yeah I'll be here waiting for you baby roll away the stone
Well he was a jackass babe/ He was a fool
The man was a punk ass/ Complete fucking tool
You oughta forget him babe/ And find someone new
It's a brand new day that the world just handed you
Yeah it's a brand new day take a drink of the morning dew
And come on back/ Don't you sink into depression
Come back/ Baby roll away the stone
Come back/ Let me make a little confession
I'll be here waiting for you when you're over being alone
Yeah I'll be here waiting for you baby roll away the stone
Show me a signal babe/ Throw me a sign
Shoot off a flare gun/ I'll drop you a line
I'd like to take you/ Away from here
And make all of your sorrows disappear
Yeah I'd like to make all of your worries disappear
Poof.
