Lyrics

Didn?t Mean to Pry

I met a lady in the check out line today
saw her when it came my turn to pay
it was somethin? in her eyes
that stabbed me like a knife as I stood there
excuse me, I didn?t mean to stare

then she pulled a tissue from her purse
and I said smile, surely things could be worse
that?s when the first tears came
and she turned away in shame and heaved a sigh
excuse me, I didn?t mean to cry

but there ain?t one single reason I should smile sir
and if you walked in my shoes you?d know why sir
my life?s a living hell
and even though you mean well I still can?t hide
today I found out love can die

it came to me at a very early age sir
and I believed it all my life till yesterday sir
that love lasts forever
and two hearts together will prevail
excuse me, that?s just a fairy tale

I always knew love could cry
then I found out love could lie
and the times he left before
I learned that love could say good bye
and as crazy as it seems
I held onto that dream, I don?t know why
no one ever told me love can die

so there ain?t one single reason I should smile sir
and if you walked in my shoes you?d know why sir
my life?s a living hell
and even though you mean well I still can?t hide
today I found out love can die

excuse me, I didn?t mean to pry
