lyrics

At twelve years old you swore I’d be your only love / Guess I’m a fool for taking you at your word

So what if fifteen years flew by / So what if you’re with some other guy / He don’t give a damn for you

Your love is true / But can’t you see mine is too / Come on and leave that man you serve for the boy who worships you

When you slipped and fell on the ice after school / Remember how I tried to carry you home

I must’ve made it half a block / Before my arms gave and you dropped / You kissed my cheek and limped away alone

Right then and there I pledged that I / Wouldn’t leave your side without a fight / Come on and leave that man you serve for the boy who worships you

I’ve worked all my life to build a home / Now all I’m left with is a couple empty rooms

I know he buys you expensive things / But money ain’t worth shit if it’s paying for your tears / I’d never leave you empty and all alone

I’d pick you up and hold you tight / I know you’re scared but it’ll be alright

Come on and leave that man you serve for the boy who worships you
