Lyrics
You know I look for you
All over, this place
Your friends say you are here
They see you every day
I gave my life to you
You took my heart away
If you try to come to me
You just can?t stay
Yes you took my heart
You took my breath away
If you try to come to me
I just can?t let you stay
You left me here, yes all alone
You broke my heart, now I?m singing that sad song
?I don?t want to see you at all?
?You Hog, You Dog?
I gave my life to you
You took my heart away
I gave my hand to you
You played me, and left that same day.
I gave my life to you
You took my heart away
I gave my hand to you
You played me for a fool. Hay, hay
Yes you took my heart, you took my breath away
If you try to come to me, you just can?t stay.
You left me here, yes all along
You broke my heart, now I?m singing that sad, song.
I don?t want to see you at all.
?You Hog, You Dirty Dog?
You came in my life like a song I know.
I heard it played every place I go.
If you didn?t love me, why couldn?t you let me be.
My feeling are mixed up and now I just can?t see.
I gave my life to you
You took my heart away
I gave my hand to you
You played me, and left that same day.
