Lyrics

30 Day Loan

I thought that I heard wedding bells
A-ringing in your voice
I chose to give you all my love
Never doubting in my choice

I put my heart into your care
Like my money in a trust
But now I turn around to see
That's the bank's gone bust

Your words all carried confidence
You held my pride between your hands
It seemed like you were built on rock
And I had found a man

I believed each word that you said
When you spoke of a house and home
I hoped for a lifetime investment
You took out a 30 day loan

I'm sitting here, I'm all alone
Tears running in disgrace
Why'd you go? I'd like to know
I'm feeling so displaced

I bought your words like they were gold
I put my pennies in your cup
But look what a difference one day makes
'Cause it's all gone belly up

When I told our friends of our love
I used a bragging tone
I'm so ashamed, I hide my face
I won't answer the phone

I lent to you on friendly terms
Never dreamed one day I'd moan
Please can't we renegotiate
The length of that 30 day loan?
