I'll take the blame for you for taking one
chance away from me at getting over this
and what you were to me. Your work is done
I'm laughing, after all we're getting too old for this
and what a pretty night, what a pretty night
you finally fit into my shoes, I'm never dressed for the occasional invasion of surprises, I don't get surprised
You think your secrets safe with you
I'll catch it swinging through the grapevine
It's time I let you go
and here's looking at you kid
your last word comes out slower
than you thought it would
its all you ever wanted
But you couldn't see me coming with the lights out
you're gonna find out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
Gung ho you let your guard down
you're nothing but a write-out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
I'm taking shame with you for taking too
too many years that could have lasted
now we'll never get back
But tonight the moon will set the mood
I'm a train routed off course just to keep on track
and what a petty crime, what a petty crime
how could you be anything but greedy
when its all that you know
Give another try, give another try
But if your one for the money
than you're too good to show on time
I let you down
and here's looking at you kid
Now that I found and caught you red handed
I'm the last man standing
But you couldn't see me coming with the lights out
you're gonna find out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
Gung ho you let your guard down
you're nothing but a write-out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
But you couldn't see me coming with the lights out
you're gonna find out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
Gung ho you let your guard down
you're nothing but a write-out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
Take my goodbyes with love and meaningful lyrics
I got you this time
I got you this time
A closing line unannounced and breaking your spirits
a curtain call cry
I got you this time. I got you this time
It's happened all before with you
the one to call it short but girl
when I say that it's over than its over for good
We're nothing now but history
I'll leave you reminiscing in a diary regretting paying dues
But you couldn't see me coming with the lights out
you're gonna find out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
Gung ho you let your guard down
your nothing but a write-out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
But you couldn't see me coming with the lights out
you're gonna find out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
Gung ho you let your guard down
you're nothing but a write-out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
But you couldn't see me coming with the lights out
soon you're gonna find out
This is an outrage
Gung ho you let your guard down
you're nothing but a write-out
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
I'll leave you raining on your own parade
