Well, I never gave it much thought
When I was younger
Yeah, I guess you could say
That I was perfectly blind
You better watch out for the one
You don't see coming
That's the one they say
Will get you every time
Broken hearts and memories
Are always leaving town
Just when you're not looking
They always come around
They bring you down
There's a woman who live all alone
With her cats and her Bibles
There's a red rose she keeps under glass
To remind her of him
Ruth used to dance with Bobby at the club
Every Friday evenin'
Just a little bit of joy
In a world full of sorrow and sin
Broken hearts and memories
Are always leaving town
Just when you're not looking
They always come around
They bring you down
Well, I never gave it much thought
When I was younger
Yeah, I guess you could say
That I was perfectly blind
You better watch out for the one
You don't see coming
That's the one they say
Will get you every time
