[Verse 1: Susan Anway]
We used to dance like it was going out of style
When you loved me for a while
And I remember every word you ever said, every kiss
We used to sing all the oldest songs we knew
But the words were never true for you
Or was it all a game of solitaire played in the dark?
[Chorus]
All the sweetest things you said
And I believed were summer lies
Hanging in the willow trees
Like the dead were summer lies
I'll never fall in love again
[Verse 2]
I whispered too, but the things I said were true
And I gave up my whole world for you
I gave you all the best years of my life
And half the worst, and now you're gone
I pine and wane, pale and wan
Never knowing when it's dawn, curtains drawn
Hiding in my room wasting away, cutting myself
[Chorus]
